SUMMARY:Nosferatu with Live Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Sink your fangs into Halloween with Arpeggione Ensemble’s live performance of the score for Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror. In the 1920s\, silent films weren’t silent: They were accompanied by a live piano player\, organist or full orchestra. Experience this classic 1922 horror movie with Arpeggione performing on historical instruments from the early 20th century\, including harmonium\, flute\, clarinet and strings. \nFrom the eerily corpse-like appearance of Max Schreck as Count Orlok to climactic shot of a shadow on a staircase\, Nosferatu set the standard for modern horror movies and created the vampire movie as we know it. As the earliest film adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula\, Nosferatu is the source of several of the most enduring aspects of modern-day vampire lore. \nFans of horror\, music enthusiasts\, vintage aficionados… enter if you dare to see and hear Nosferatu as it would have sounded when it was first screened! \nJoin us between the 1 pm and 7 pm screenings for a talk with the performers about the cultural impact\, artistic innovations and enduring legacy of Nosferatu. \nPerformers:\nThomas Carroll\, director and clarinet\nAndrea LeBlanc\, flute\nElise Bonhivert\, clarinet\nIsabelle Seula Lee\, violin\nEmily Hale\, violin\nSachin Shukla\, viola\nAnna Seda\, cello\nGuinevere Fridley\, bass\nApril Sun\, piano\nGeorge Wiese\, harmonium \nPEM Presents seeks to surprise and delight audiences with world-class artistry in music\, theater\, dance\, film and more. This series allows audiences to learn about the artistic process and supports the development of artists with local\, regional\, national and global perspectives. This program further activates the museum as a global center for art\, culture and creativity with artist residencies\, live performances\, lecture series\, symposia and conferences. PEM Presents is a collaboration between Learning and Community Engagement and the Present Tense initiative. \nPEM Presents is made possible by The Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation.

SUMMARY:Free Admission for Indigenous Peoples’ Day
DESCRIPTION:On Indigenous Peoples’ Day\, we honor the sovereignty\, resilience and immense contributions of Native Americans. Join us for a free day of special programming to respectfully acknowledge and celebrate Indigenous communities. \nArtist Presentation with Elizabeth James Perry\nNoon–1:30 pm | Main Atrium \n2023 NEA Heritage award recipient Elizabeth James-Perry (Aquinnah Wampanoag) joins us for a presentation of her artistic practice. Her work engages with Northeastern Woodlands Native cultural expressions\, primarily in sculptural forms of wampum shell-carving and bead-making with its connection to identity and sovereignty\, maritime traditions and restorative Native gardening. \nShe is a culture bearer\, lecturer\, educator and plant walk leader in addition to textile\, wampum and quill work. You can find her work on display in On This Ground: Being and Belonging in America. \nFilm Screenings: We Still Live Here: Âs Nutayuneân\n11:30 am–1 pm\, 1–2:30 pm Morse Auditorium\n84 minutes long \nWe Still Live Here: Âs Nutayuneân\, a documentary by award-winning filmmaker Anne Makepeace\, tells the story of the return of the Wampanoag language\, a language that was silenced for more than a century. At the heart of the film is Jessie Little Doe Baird (Mashpee Wampanoag)\, who finds her way from the tiny enclave of Mashpee\, Massachusetts\, to becoming a celebrated linguist honored with a MacArthur ‘genius’ award in 2010 for her unprecedented work in bringing her own Wampanoag language back home. \nWe Still Live Here interweaves the present-day story of Jessie and other Wampanoags reclaiming their language with historical events that silenced the language and obliterated much of their culture – epidemics\, missionary pressures\, land loss and the indenture of Native children. Ruth Lingford’s powerful animation illuminates and deepens the emotional impact of these devastating events\, even as the contemporary story brings a hopeful vision of the future.
