WesWorks: A Performance with Wesleyan Facilities Staff

by

The Center for the Arts cordially invites you to WesWorks on Thursday Oct 14 through Saturday October 16th at 7pm on Andrus Field. Come sit under the stars with your classmates and with beautiful stage lighting and live music, help us gather as a community to honor and give thanks to the extraordinary facilities staff who have worked hard to keep our campus open and safe during COVID. 

Please join us October 14-16 on Andrus Field for WesWorks, a multi-site, celebratory, outdoor performance featuring the work, skills and stories of Wesleyan’s Physical Plant, Custodial Operations and Grounds Crew employees. Choreographed by Austin TX-based Forklift Danceworks, WesWorks connects students, staff, and faculty through a community-based dance-making process to cultivate awareness of and appreciation for the labor of our essential workers, improve relationships among employees and students, and encourage collective stewardship of our campus spaces.
