Voxfest begins tonight! Join us tonight and this weekend for amazing new theater work! 

All work is FREE!


VOX BARTER

7-9 PM TONIGHT in the HOOD MUSEUM

An immersive, theatrical exploration of the connection between art, people, and one's self. This event blurs the line between audience and theater-maker.


Please plan to arrive at the museum no later than 7 PM and expect to stay for the duration of the event (2 hours).



This event blurs the line between audience and theater-maker, bringing forth the artistry in all people. Short performances will be created by everyone, as they draw inspiration from the Hood Museum's current collections and from one another.


VOXFEST is a festival for the development of innovative new projects initiated by Dartmouth alumni. Vox Theater will be in residence at Dartmouth from July 6-12, collaborating on five new works-in-progress involving Dartmouth students, alumni and faculty.


All events are FREE and open to the public -- may contain mature themes and subject matter.
