Doors will open at 7:30pm, when guests may explore an interactive installation in the Vault Room by Alexander Davis. The related dance performance will begin at 8:00pm and last 20–30 minutes. Afterward, guests are invited to remain for light refreshments and informal conversation. Artist Irene Hsi's performance piece is an exploration of performance as empathetic exchange. In the dance, four people perform one person's bodily commentary on a transformative past experience.

Sound Design: Kevin Laba Costume Design: Irene Hsi Trident Gallery will close at 5:00pm to prepare for the performance.
