ART AT THE THRESHOLD is an annual event series that explores the relationship between wellness and illness, wholeness and brokenness, insider and outsider, as seen through the lens of the arts -- visual, word, sound, movement, performance, culinary and ritual. Performances and community events explore various aspects of this threshold juncture and offer opportunities for engagement, inquiry, inspiration, discovery and dialog.
