AGE: WIDE ANGLE Age in an Ageless Art Form February 9, 2010

James Sewell (co-Founder, Artistic Director and choreographer of the James Sewell Ballet) has choreographed more than 60 ballets, including 11 for which he composed the music. He was lead dancer with Feld Ballets/NY and performed with the New York City Ballet, at the Guthrie and beyond. As a recipient of numerous awards, including Bush Foundation and McKnight Fellowships, James's ballets have been performed throughout the world. James will examine the evolution of his work and the art of ballet, “an ageless art form.”

Held every Tuesday evening in February and March, the Age: Wide Angle lecture series offers a fresh perspective on the topic of age and aging by prominent arts leaders who will explore the role age plays in their field of expertise or their own artistic lives.

Held at the Central Library in Pohlad Hall (300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, MN 55401), the programs are free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served. Doors open at 6:15 and programs begin at 7 PM.

Age: Wide Angle is co-presented by Mill City Commons and the Library Foundation of Hennepin County, and made possible by the generous support of our sponsors: Target, Gentle Transitions, AgeWell, and Gittleman Management.
