Workshop 3-6pm
Lizzy Mulkey, Heather Lyon and JoAnna Mendl Shaw are all artists whose work focuses on embodied transformations, be it in Shaw’s interspecies works with horses and dancers, Lyons immersive visual installations and performances and Mulkey’s choreographic films The three artists join forces to guide participants through a process of deeply embodied decision-making and creative exploration that begins with body scans and multi-sensory listening, continues into an expansive exploration of non-verbal collaboration and culminates in each participant creating a fabric and random-objects sculpture-costume that leads to embodied inhabiting.

Performance 6-7pm
Interested participants may join Lizzy Mulkey, Heather Lyon and JoAnna Mendl Shaw in a movement installation performance that will progress down the Main Street of Biddeford and explore the riverside terrain

Engine is and has been a focal point of downtown Biddeford for many years for so many artists and creative spirits. It is a go-to for me: a retreat, a destination, a source for connection and ideas and community.

Engine is a wonderful place to work surrounded by wonderful people who have infused so much love and light into the downtown of Biddeford. I cannot imagine a bright future in the town without this wonderful organization.
