Bitforms Gallery Recital and Dancer Chelsea Ainsworth - 02/28/18
Harriet McCaig is telling me that I should reserve the title: 'Extremely Serious and Sometimes Sad'for my on-line social diary before somebody else does.
Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most any of us
can do is sign on as its accomplice. ---Tom Robbins
[ A dialog with Nicholas Croft about the difference between various social traditions @ Cafe Tibet ]
I'm not really interested in music. Music is just a means of creating a magical state. ---Robert Fripp
My job is to have new ideas and take risks every day, so I'm always looking forward to
the next thing being done or making the next thing that I haven't yet gotten to.
That's sort of the constant in my life. ---Miranda July
The audience feeds off of the sense of presence of the performer, and the performer feeds off
of the sense of presence of the audience. At it's best, performance is reciprocal.
Everyone is in communion together. ---Nicholas Croft

Arts On Site began as a monthly party to showcase artists. The event was an initiative from professional
artists Chelsea Ainsworth, Kyle Netzeband and Adrian Rosas, to connect artists from multiple forms.

In 2016, Arts On Site NYC was established as a non profit organization to support the development
of artists and encourage collaboration. It opened up two studio spaces in the East Village
to offer affordable studio rentals and provide space for community events.

Ballroom, and Modern dance as well as attending the North Carolina
School of the Arts as a high school ballet major.
I love the presence of love, but don't want to need it. Neutrality encourages union with variety,
and we are born to experience the fullness of everything. ---Nicholas Croft
