MAHWAH, N.J. — The Angelica and Russ Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts on the Ramapo College of New Jersey campus is pleased to announce the latest virtual series Made in Jersey that will launch its first broadcast on Thursday, December 10 at 8 p.m. The streams will be available through YouTube and are free.

Made in Jersey will feature a series of New Jersey-based performing artists sharing new works-in-progress.  After each broadcast, audiences will be able to join Lisa Campbell, Berrie Center Director, and the artist for that evening in a live chat where they can ask questions of the artists.

The series will begin with microtonal musician Elizabeth Walsh, who uses video, spoken word and her percussive instruments for the performance of “Dream Window.” In the piece, Walsh explores her own dreams and how the pandemic has driven us all inside and has encouraged her to look inward as well.  Additional slated performances include poet and storyteller Michelle Myers with her new work “Mudang Magic” and Indian classical dancer Kiran Rajagopalan.

Audiences can view the broadcasts on the You-Tube channel Ramapo College Berrie Center.  While events are free, viewers are encouraged to consider making a gift to the Contemporary Arts Fund or the COVID-19 Student Emergency Fund through the Ramapo Foundation at  www.ramapo.edu/give
