Child and Youth Program (CYP) hosted a special Month of the Military Child (MOMC) Children’s Performance and a MOMC Children’s Parade on Monday, Apr. 3. April is designated as the Month of the Military Child (MOMC) and to kickoff this month-long celebration, the children sang a patriotic song and recited the Pledge of Allegiance in front of the CYP building. The children's performance was accompanied by a special presentation from the color guard. This arrangement lead directly into the MOMC Children's Parade where the children and their parents walked a pre-determined route around the CYP building. Military and civilian personnel on Defense Distribution Center Susquehanna were invited to accompany the children on their parade to cheer them on and show support for the military children around the globe.

On June 8th, 2023, the cell and Franklin Furnace co-hosted "Pride as Performance: Preserving the Ephemeral" - a program I produced in conjunction with Elena Zavalev (CADAF) that included a "Life is Drag" installation, a panel discussion, and a live show featuring drag performers I recently documented for this archive. This event served as both a celebratory closing reception for my most recent 6 month "Life is Drag" residency at the cell, as well as CADAF's 3rd Web3 Collectors Salon.
"Pride as Performance" featured distinguished scholars, curators, artists, and performers:
● Martha Wilson (Franklin Furnace founder & performance artist)
● Rachel Rampleman ("Life is Drag" archive creator & multimedia artist)
● Carrie Able (internationally renowned multidisciplinary artist & metaverse pioneer)
● Joe E. Jeffreys (drag historian, documentarian, educator & pundit)
● Esther, The Bipedal Entity! (drag performer & multimedia artist)
● Fem Appeal (18 veteran of NYC’s drag & burlesque scenes)
● Stephanie McGovern (visual artist, performer & video artist)
● Junior Mintt (drag preacher & businesswoman)
● Sir Cum Sized (drag king, clown & klezmer musician)
Topics covered during the panel included:
● The vital role of documenting and archiving performance art, and more specifically, drag
● Web3 / NFT opportunities for performance artists
● The transformation of performance art and drag in the digital era
The show after the panel featured performances by Mimi, Silk, Fem Appeal, Sir Cum Sized, X-Emma & TANK.
In partnership with Franklin Furnace and the cell.

The Performance Project offers DNA Students an opportunity to expand upon relationships with DNA Faculty and Guest Modern Artists established through open classes. DNA supports the growth of those relationships outside of the classroom by pairing students with teachers of their choosing to work collaboratively on a creative project presented in a three evening concert. Serving both recreational dancers and aspiring professionals dancers, the Performance Project provides the chance to experience the creative process of dance through rehearsals and performance. For the more advanced/professional dancer, it gives them the opportunity to work with a choreographer of their choice, expanding their performance experience and the opportunity to network.
