Overview

Recommended for children ages 3+ 

Join Guild Hall’s Anthony Madonna and storytellers from the East Hampton Library for a family hour of stories, gallery tours, and art workshops. At each session we will be reading a children’s book in response to the current exhibitions, Enoc Perez: Paradise and Karin Waisman: The Horizon is not a Straight Line, followed by a hands-on workshop.

This series is produced in tandem with the exhibitions, Enoc Perez: Paradise and Karin Waisman: The Horizon is not a Straight Line 

This week’s story is Marvelous Cornelius: Hurricane Katrina and The Spirit of New Orleans, Philip Bildner followed by repurposed assemblage inspired by Enoc Perez.

Sessions are held in-person at Guild Hall both indoors and outdoors, with gallery tours occur in the Museum and the adjoining workshop in the Minikes Garden. Masks are required at all times.

Space is extremely limited to a maximum of 15 participants. When registering, please be sure to register both adults and children.

  • Anthony Madonna

    Anthony Madonna is an interdisciplinary collaborative artist, educator, and creative producer, Anthony strives to construct experiences that both critically challenge our individual beliefs and bring awareness to our responsibility as a community. 

    This ambition has led him to work in various roles and contexts: a music-theater workshop leader amongst diverse age groups and learning developments; a music practitioner within hospitals and rehabilitation centers; a concert and festival producer; a composer/performer of experimental vocal works; and a collaborative installation artist. Anthony has worked within institutions such as The McCarter Theatre Center, The Juilliard School, and the Barbican Centre. His projects have been shown and/or performed as part of the Tate Modern: Tate Exchange (London), the Barbican Centre’s Dialogue, UnFinished, and Curious festivals (London), Guild Hall of East Hampton (Long Island, NY), and The Arts Center at Duck Creek (Long Island, NY).

    Anthony currently serves as the Patti Kenner Director of Learning + New Works at Guild Hall of East Hampton. In this role he manages all Guild Hall (GH) initiatives on site, and in schools, the Guild Hall Teen Arts Council (the first paid teen arts program in the region), and Guild Hall’s three residency programs: the Guild Hall William P. Rayner Artist-in-Residence program; Community Artist-in-Residence program; and the Guild Hall & Bel Canto Bootcamp Resident Artist series.

    Anthony is a graduate of the Beth Morrison Projects Producer Academy, the Guildhall School of Music & Drama (M.M. Music Leadership), The Juilliard School’s Professional Apprenticeship Program, and Westminster Choir College (B.M. Music Education & Vocal Performance).
