“Giselle” is a classical ballet that tells the story of a peasant girl who falls in love with a nobleman disguised as a commoner. Tragically, the girl dies of a broken heart when she discovers the truth about her lover’s identity. The ballet is known for its stunning choreography and beautiful music and is a true masterpiece of the ballet repertoire. We are honored to have the prime dancers from the National Opera and Ballet of Ukraine bring this timeless classic to life on stage. Their talent and artistry are unmatched, and we know that audiences will be swept away by their breathtaking performances.This performance of “Giselle” promises to be a night of unforgettable beauty and artistry. Don’t miss your chance to see these world-class dancers in action. Mark your calendars for the performance and join us for a magical evening of ballet.

Join us for the 14th Annual Ceramics Lecture featuring artist Sana Musasama!

Sana Musasama received her BA in 1973 from the City College of New York and her MFA from Alfred University in 1988. Musasama began traveling to explore and recover her identity and cultural place. Her love of clay served as the catalyst for her initial travels in West Africa, where she studied Mende pottery in Sierra Leone (1974-75). Later, Musasama ventured to Japan, China, South America, and Cambodia, where she returns yearly to work with survivors of sex trafficking. Musasama’s work is informed by history, women’s studies, culture, and her travel journal, and her mission is to be a global citizen who experiences the world heart first.

The Annual Ceramic Arts Lecture is a co-presentation of Syracuse University College of Visual and Performing Arts, the Everson Museum of Art, and the Chronicles of American Ceramics Foundation.
