Start Making Sense
Runs through Sunday, October 20, 2024
12–6 pm
CCS GalleriesStart Making Sense brings together highlights from the collections housed at the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College; the art collection, Special Collections, part of the CCS Bard library, and the CCS Bard archives. At a moment when the Center is poised to greatly expand its library, archives and classrooms with the new 6,000 sq foot Keith Haring Wing, doubling the size of the library and adding 75% more collection storage below ground (opening in 2025), Start Making Sense creates an open dialogue between artworks and the contexts (exhibitions, institutions, galleries, events, curators, and collectors) which literally “make sense” of the works on display. It does so in a playful dialogue between art objects, archives, ephemera, and rare books held at CCS Bard beginning with the Marieluise Hessel Collection and moving to more recent gifts from a broad range of collectors, curators, artists and others who have placed their gifts at the disposition of the students, faculty and outside researchers who form the CCS Bard community.

On July 3 at 3:00 pm, Rethinking Place and the Bard Farm will host a seed story share event with Lucy Grignon of Ancient Roots Homestead, where we will gather to have tea, swap seeds, and share experiences of plant relationships. If you would like, bring some seeds, a story, or a snack to share.
Please bring sun protection and water. If it’s nice, we will be in the sunshine!
Lucille Grignon (Stockbridge-Munsee) is a homesteader at Ancient Roots Homestead, which is located on the Stockbridge-Munsee Reservation. She has transitioned from teaching in a modern colonial classroom into working as an educator of Ancient Indigenous skills, ideas, and traditions guided by the ways of her ancestors.Sponsored by: American and Indigenous Studies Program; Bard Farm.

Ulysses
Friday, July 5, 2024
7:30–8:30 pm
Fisher Center, LUMA Theater“A heroic achievement…Elevator Repair Service’s adaptation merrily condenses the choicest essentials of James Joyce’s magnum opus.” —Village Voice
“The Elevator Repair Service production, playing at Bard through July 14, somehow manages to reduce the novel’s more than 260,000 words to 2 hours and 40 minutes with much of its humor, pathos, and bawdiness intact.” —New York Times
James Joyce’s Ulysses has fascinated, perplexed, scandalized, and/or defeated readers for over a century. Building on a rich history of staging modernist works—Gatz, The Sound and the Fury, The Select (The Sun Also Rises)—Elevator Repair Service (ERS) takes on this Mount Everest of twentieth-century literature in their Fisher Center debut.
Seven performers sit down for a sober reading but soon find themselves guzzling pints, getting in brawls, and committing debaucheries as they careen on a fast-forward tour through Joyce’s funhouse of styles. With madcap antics and a densely layered sound design, ERS presents an eclectic sampling from Joyce’s life-affirming masterpiece.

Larry Owens
Larry Fights A.I.
Friday, July 5, 2024
8–9 pm
Fisher Center, SpiegeltentThe “virtuosic” (New York Times) Larry Owens (Abbott Elementary, A24’s Problemista, A Strange Loop) makes his Spiegeltent debut with a brand new hour of stand-up comedy and music. In the current battle of arts and entertainment, who will win—Larry or Artificial Intelligence? Using his unique blend of characters, stand-up, and song, Owens hilariously defends human self-expression as our global birthright. This new musical comedy hour from the “best seen to be believed” (New York Magazine) Drama Desk and Obie Award winner sharply explores pop culture, the history of performance, and the future of entertainment.
Featuring music production by Jen Goma.

July Weeklong Workshops
Sunday, July 7, 2024
Olin Humanities AuditoriumThe July weeklong workshops help teachers deepen their understanding of writing-based teaching, its theory and practices, and its application in the classroom. Each workshop focuses on a particular form of writing—the essay, academic paper, creative nonfiction—or on writing-based teaching in a particular subject area, such as history, science and math, or grammar.
The workshops offer a retreat in which participants learn new writing practices, read diverse texts, and collaborate with teachers from around the world on the Bard College campus. The luxury of time helps us envision how we might make these new practices our own by adapting writing prompts, accommodating collaborative learning in larger classes, and incorporating new readings. We also explore how different forms, such as poetry, might inspire students from diverse backgrounds.
During the week, teachers live in private dorm rooms on the Bard campus, eat meals together, and enjoy the beautiful setting and lively atmosphere of Annandale-on-Hudson in the summer. Workshop groups meet for 14 sessions, beginning Sunday evening. Subsequently, groups meet three times a day between 9 am and 4 pm, except Wednesday and Friday, the final day, when workshops conclude at 1 pm. Workshops are capped at 15 participants.
The schedule gives participants time to explore the scenic Mid-Hudson Valley and take advantage of lovely walking paths and Bard’s recreational facilities, including the Stevenson Athletic Center swimming pool, tennis and squash courts, and fitness center. The Bard SummerScape festival showcases an extraordinary program of performing arts and an international roster of acclaimed artists.

Moving beyond iconic projects, Remember to Dream seeks to rebalance understanding of Weems’ artistic development over the past 30 years while locating her work in the context of her own lived experiences and commitment to activism.

July Weeklong Workshops
Wednesday, July 10, 2024
Olin Humanities AuditoriumThe July weeklong workshops help teachers deepen their understanding of writing-based teaching, its theory and practices, and its application in the classroom. Each workshop focuses on a particular form of writing—the essay, academic paper, creative nonfiction—or on writing-based teaching in a particular subject area, such as history, science and math, or grammar.
The workshops offer a retreat in which participants learn new writing practices, read diverse texts, and collaborate with teachers from around the world on the Bard College campus. The luxury of time helps us envision how we might make these new practices our own by adapting writing prompts, accommodating collaborative learning in larger classes, and incorporating new readings. We also explore how different forms, such as poetry, might inspire students from diverse backgrounds.
During the week, teachers live in private dorm rooms on the Bard campus, eat meals together, and enjoy the beautiful setting and lively atmosphere of Annandale-on-Hudson in the summer. Workshop groups meet for 14 sessions, beginning Sunday evening. Subsequently, groups meet three times a day between 9 am and 4 pm, except Wednesday and Friday, the final day, when workshops conclude at 1 pm. Workshops are capped at 15 participants.
The schedule gives participants time to explore the scenic Mid-Hudson Valley and take advantage of lovely walking paths and Bard’s recreational facilities, including the Stevenson Athletic Center swimming pool, tennis and squash courts, and fitness center. The Bard SummerScape festival showcases an extraordinary program of performing arts and an international roster of acclaimed artists. For more information and to reserve tickets, visit fishercenter.bard.edu/summerscape.

Ulysses
Wednesday, July 10, 2024
1:30–2:30 pm
Fisher Center, LUMA Theater“A heroic achievement…Elevator Repair Service’s adaptation merrily condenses the choicest essentials of James Joyce’s magnum opus.” —Village Voice
“The Elevator Repair Service production, playing at Bard through July 14, somehow manages to reduce the novel’s more than 260,000 words to 2 hours and 40 minutes with much of its humor, pathos, and bawdiness intact.” —New York Times
James Joyce’s Ulysses has fascinated, perplexed, scandalized, and/or defeated readers for over a century. Building on a rich history of staging modernist works—Gatz, The Sound and the Fury, The Select (The Sun Also Rises)—Elevator Repair Service (ERS) takes on this Mount Everest of twentieth-century literature in their Fisher Center debut.
Seven performers sit down for a sober reading but soon find themselves guzzling pints, getting in brawls, and committing debaucheries as they careen on a fast-forward tour through Joyce’s funhouse of styles. With madcap antics and a densely layered sound design, ERS presents an eclectic sampling from Joyce’s life-affirming masterpiece.

Faith hates reading, Jane lost her flashcards, and Javier sees no point in studying because of climate change. This playful collection of poem-songs, written and performed by Milo Cramer ’12—a former tutor—paints intimate portraits of ten NYC students fighting to get into competitive schools. Directed by fellow Bard alum Morgan Green ’12, School Pictures is a charming musical journal of keen observations which builds to a sweeping meditation on inequality, learning, parenting, and the cruelty of puberty.
