Hot Shop Hot Nights with Eriko Kobayashi @ Hilltop Heritage Middle School

This June, Eriko Kobayashi is in residence at Hilltop Artists!
Eriko Kobayashi (b. Tokyo, Japan) fell in love with the color and texture of glass in 2014. This fascination led her to study at Toyama City Institute of Glass Art in Japan (2016), and later pursue her MFA in Glass at Southern Illinois University (2022). Kobayashi recently relocated to Seattle to continue her career in glass.
During their week-long residency, renowned artists from the glass community set up in our hot shop, creating their own works, sharing with our students about their processes and experiences, and collaborating with Hilltop Artists.
The week culminates on Friday for our Hot Shop Hot Night, when we welcome our community to see the visiting artist and our young artists in action.

For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When The Rainbow is Enuf @ Lakewood Playhouse

Jun 6 @ 7:30 pm
For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When The Rainbow is Enuf @ Lakewood Playhouse

“…somebody/anybody, sing a black girl’s song, bring her out to know herself to know you…”
By Ntozake Shange
Directed by Michelle Matlock

Join the circle as seven women share their stories and find strength in each other’s truth, passion and humor. This fusion of poetry, dance, music and song explodes off the stage and touches the hearts and minds of all those who experience it. It’s time for joy. It’s time for sisterhood. It’s time for colored girls.

“The poems introduce the girls to other kinds of people of color, other worlds. To adventure, and kindness, and cruelty. Cruelty that we usually think we face alone, but we don’t. We discover that by sharing with each other we find strength to go on. The poems are the play’s first hint of the global misogyny that we women face.” – Ntozake Shange

“A poignant, gripping, angry and beautiful work.” – Time

“A triumphant event, filled with humor. Pure theatre.” – New York Daily News

Please note: this production contains strong language, reflections on rape and abuse, and mature themes.
