Current & Upcoming Projects
CONTACT QUARTERLY LIBRARY AT 33 HAWLEY
APE@Hawley is excited to announce that the dance library that was acquired and stewarded for years by our friends at Contact Quarterly is now housed at A.P.E.'s office in 33 Hawley! Since the closing of CQ's office down the road in Florence, MA, we have accepted their generous gift of hundreds of books, periodicals, and DVDs on dance practice and performance, as well as a full CQ back issue set. Once COVID restrictions allow, we will be making this reading library available to the public for using and perusing while at 33 Hawley. Also on the horizon is the use of a public computer, gifted to us by CQ, for research and browsing of CQ's back issue archive.
We can't wait to read and research together!"
