About this Event
Please join us for an evening of music, dance, and an artist talk with the talented Chicago muralist Dorian Sylvain, and a dance performance by Chicago performer Charmayne Beverly.
Dorian Sylvain is a painter whose color and texture explore ornamentation, pattern, and design as identifiers of cultural and historical foundations. She is a studio painter and muralist, as well as an art educator, curator, and community planner.
We are also delighted to have a dance performance from Chicago dancer Charmayne Beverly.
Charmayne’s favorite pastime and dedication focused on the love of dance. From High School dance troupes to Alvin Allie dance group in her late teens, Charmayne has remained dedicated to the love of dance. As prominent career advancement became her world, dancing became private performances in Charmayne’s church and the occasional women’s circle.
To add to the charm of the evening, we will be providing a hot chocolate bar and pizza for all to enjoy.
This will be the first community event for Fellow Sholo Beverly. With the theme of the show relating to murals, women, and nature, we will get our first taste of what’s to come for the final show.
