The Church in Sag Harbor will host workshops devoted to breaking, a style of street dance that evolved from the hip-hop movement of the early '70s, and a concert of contemporary music inspired by a painting by April Gornik, the venue's co-founder.
On Sunday, Ivan (Heat Rock) Cofield, who premiered his style at The Church in January, will lead introductory courses on the fundamental movements, styles, and ideas behind breaking, and talk about its history. Workshops for ages 8 to 15 will begin at 11 a.m.; for ages 16 and up, at 1 p.m. The talk, which is free with workshop registration, will be at noon.
The youth session is $20; the adult session is $40.
The Montage Music Society, which is dedicated to music inspired by contemporary art, will present "Light Bending the World," a composition by Niles Luther based on Ms. Gornik's painting of the same name, next Thursday at 7 p.m.
The work is a "fusion of Gornik's reimagined observable reality with the idioms of contemporary music," says The Church. Mr. Luther, a cellist, will be joined by Debra Ayers, a pianist, and Laurie Carney, a violinist. A discussion with the musicians and Ms. Gornik will follow the performance.
Tickets are $30; $25 for members, $10 for students, and $15 for a livestream. Livestream ticket holders will receive an email to access the program.
