Riding on a wave\, each of us gravitating toward the unknown\, disregarding boundaries that were no longer needed. This place where movement blends with humor\, sound paints the landscape and visuals twist the mind into… surprise! \nOvercome by the political landscape\, here we are with our feelings. FUCKING FEELINGS (!) – yell and scream – catharsis – emotional outbursts – dance party – sweat – bodies close together – humor – collaborations with other artists/people who aren’t artists (civilians) – widen your dirty sphere – dance – music – visual art – all in one space – productive political dialogues – conversation – think tank – make fun – make serious – make art – surprise(!) \nHow can we surprise one another with the unexpected alliances that are made by cross-pollinating our communities and revolutionizing the intended uses of the venues and institutions we’re used to? It’s time to deframe or reframe the suddenly static definitions of what performance\, art\, and creative expression can be. Does it need the validation of the institution that it is assigned or can it be validated by the diverse communities that support and create it? surprise/!\, the “high” and the “low” are not so different from one another. \nLet’s overcome the divisiveness of current politics and culture and pay homage to our roots\, subverting boundaries through showing up and coming together. surprise. It’s a festival duh\, we’re doing this. \nAs we create the structure for this festival\, we cannot ignore the fact that we have no idea what will occur under this new administration in the next few months. In order to stay ready\, we are creating designated open space for meetings\, discussions or other needed formats to address what we can’t plan for – or even imagine. Throughout the course of surprise! surprise(!) surprise/! surprise\, HOWL! Happening acts as the hub for the Movement Research Festival Spring 2017 for this very purpose. We want to invite people from different communities to come together in a shared space both in formal and informal gatherings. It is also our hope that you will also get to know these incredible venues and spaces that are doing great work for their neighborhood and artistic communities. A gallery\, performance space\, and archive\, HOWL! Happening aims to shine a light on the vibrant mix of rock and roll\, social justice\, art and performance\, community activism\, LGBTQ rights and culture\, immigrants\, fashion\, and nightlife past and present in the East Village. \nFESTIVAL ARTISTS\nAdam Soch\, Bessie McDonough-Thayer\, BS Movement\, Brother(hood) Dance!\, Cakes Da Killa\, Carlos Soto\, Charles Atlas\, Deville Cohen\, DJ Adam Rhodes\, Doreen Garner\, Dynasty Handbag\, Erica Magrey\, Greer Dworman\, Jackie 60 MCs Paul Alexander and Chi Chi Valenti with DJ Johnny Dynell\, Jasmine Hearn\, Jen Sullivan\, Kembra Pfahler\, Kenya (Robinson)\, Larissa Velez-Jackson\, Liz McAuliffe\, Lucy Sexton\, Manchildblack\, Michael DiPietro\, Mr. Richard Kennedy\, Narcissister\, Raja Feather Kelly\, Reza Abdoh\, Slim Ninja\, Sophia Peer\, Tendayi Kuumba\, Tyler Ashley\, Yozmit \nwww.movementresearch.org/festival\nDownload PDF of festival brochure. \nSchedule\nMAY 31 WEDNESDAY What’s Now\, What’s Next \nJUNE 1 THURSDAY Inside Out Upside Down \nJUNE 2 FRIDAY Hail the New Puritan \nJUNE 3 SATURDAY Vertigo \nJUNE 4 SUNDAY Reza Abdoh: Theater Visionary \nJUNE 5 MONDAY Pull It Sur Prize\n \nJUNE 6 TUESDAY Basically we’re all geniuses\, end of story.

SUMMARY:No More Black Targets
DESCRIPTION:Unconscious bias can be deadly\, and contributes to one of the biggest violence issues in America. We have to do something about it. Howl! Happening is pleased to introduce No More Black Targets. \nNoMoreBlackTargets (NMBT) is a collective of artists—diverse in backgrounds\, ethnicities and nationalities—working in paint\, digital media\, patternmaking and also physical installations to bring new artwork to life. The collective paints on the actual live black silhouette paper targets used in shooting ranges\, an artistic approach that raises awareness while protesting the senseless and unlawful “black and Brown” shootings in past and recent years here in America. \nThis art project seeks to eliminate the use of the most popular target for shooters to learn to use their firearm: a menacing black silhouette. In shooting ranges\, in permitting and instruction environments\, anywhere someone is learning to use a firearm.\nTo raise awareness\, the targets will be replaced and painted over with artistic interpretations that turn the menacing black silhouettes into beautiful\, colorful and optimistic art. \nThe NMBT collective stands for “More paint. Less hate.”\nPrior to the February 2017 launching\, NMBT has gotten great development and awesome creative direction from Laurent Leccia and the team at FRED FARID. \nNMBT also partnered with the NYSEC – the New York Society of Ethical Culture. \nFeatured NoMoreBlackTargets Collective artist are: \nCYPHA\nSHAYNA KULIK\nREX CHOUK\nHEKTAD\nSACSIX\nPETER MOULTHROP\nJULIEN CALOT\nDIZMOLOGY\nBERNADETTE DELANY\nALICE MIZRACHI\nZIMER\nJENNA KRYPELL\nDENTON\nCHINON MARIA\nANDREA COOK\nUTA BRAUSER\nGIL GOREN\nAVISUAL BLISS\nJCBKNYC\nBILLIKID\nCONSUMERART\nYESONE\nBROLGA\nFKDL\nICONIC & 2CENTS\nSINES\nB.D.

SUMMARY:The Full Moon Show The Witch's Moon
DESCRIPTION:With co-hosts Tony Stinkmetal and Salley May\nA Tom Murrin/Alien Comic Invention \nAre you tired of every omnipotent cry-baby claiming to be the focus of a witch hunt? So are we! This Full Moon Show celebrates The Witch’s Moon. And his time\, the Witches will be doing the hunting. \nSalley May and Tony Stinkmetal take back the night—or more precisely\, the late afternoon—and come out swinging the Malleus Maleficarum (or medieval Witch’s Hammer) as the Full Moon Crew “un-burns” the entwined histories of witchcraft and counter-culture\, and mixes up a heady brew of historical irony\, hysterical insecurity\, and politically induced pyromania. \nMoon Goddess Luna Macaroona will be playing the role of Circe\, turning those who offend her into wild beasts. Instead of burning witches she lays waste to corrupt marketers of eternal youth\, sexism\, and the slavish followers of the social media who feed the beast. (No\, not that Beast. We mean the power structure.) \nThis Black Sabbath will include a visit from Alice Klugherz\, director of the Natural Selection performance coven to lift the current veil of mediocrity from our culture. In Haik Dreams Alice and her den of crones stir the cauldron of ageism with fierce\, funny vignettes about becoming—and being—an older woman. Unleashed from the stage and roaming freely on First Street anything might happen. Laid bare\, supercharged\, nothing to prove—these women will not go quietly! \nSo set your broomstick to stun  and your black cat to cruise-control! Suggested attire: pointy hats\, PVC chaps\, proto-crone-glam\, Lagerfeld anything\, thistle everything\, widow’s peaks with silver streaks\, spirit animals\, familiars\, Barbara Steele realness\, cobweb shawls\, Druid hoodies\, Joan of Arc haircuts. \n  \nAbout Tom Murrin and the Full Moon Show \nHowl! Happening houses the archives of Tom Murrin. Murrin\, aka the Alien Comic\, is known as the Godfather of Performance Art. Every full moon\, Tom performed the Full Moon Show in honor of his moon goddess\, Luna Macaroona. When he had a club date that fell on the full moon\, he’d wrangle his friends to perform as his guests—pushing the careers of such groundbreaking performers as David Cale\, David Sedaris\, Amy Sedaris\, Blue Man Group\, Ethyl Eichelberger\, Lisa Kron and many others. If not\, he performed on the street for passersby\, transforming the pedestrian atmosphere with his madness and magic. Howl! Happening’s monthly series continues that tradition\, with performances in the gallery and surprise pop up performances on the street. \nAbout The Tom Murrin Archive \nHowl! Happening is the repository of the Tom Murrin Archive comprising masks\, costumes\, scripts\, correspondence\, photographs\, and tapes of performances going back to the early 70s. Murrin (February 8\, 1939 – March 12\, 2012) also known as The Alien Comic and Jack Bump\, was a performance pioneer whose life and work inspired both artists and audiences for over 40 years. He was a member of the first generation of La MaMa playwrights. Tom wrote four plays performed through La MaMa and produced by John Vacarro’s Play-House of the Ridiculous\, including the offbeat hit\, Cock Strong\, which toured with Ellen Stewart’s La MaMa Troupe to Paris\, Amsterdam and Brussels. \nUnder the guidance of rock manager Jane Friedman\, Tom began to perform under the name Alien Comic\, opening for acclaimed punk bands in rock clubs such as CBGBs and Max’s Kansas City. As Alien Comic he performed in such venues as The Pyramid\, 8BC\, King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut\, Performance Space 122\, Dixon Place\, La MaMa\, and more. Since the mid 80s\, he’s created\, performed\, and curated a series of variety nights at Performance Space 122\, and La Mama Experimental Theatre Club and Dixon Place\, called The Full Moon Show. His plays Sport-Fuckers and Butt-Crack Bingo were produced at Theater for the New City and La MaMa and directed by David Levine. Tom was the first performance artist to appear on stage at the original Dixon Place location at 37 East First Street in 1986.
