CillaVee on a Times Square Billboard

By Dance, Performance No Comments

CillaVee had a second of fame on a Times Square billboard, advertising the #Chashama Gala!

The ad photo was taken by David Gwaltney at the Black Mountain College {Re}HAPPENING in 2024. CillaVee’s The Rhizomatic Collective Unconscious Dreamcatcher was originally commissioned for that performance.

#Chashama helps create a more inclusive art world by partnering with property owners to transform unused real estate. These spaces are used for artists, small businesses, and for free community-centric art classes. The Chashama Gala features performances by over 300 artists. Proceeds from the Gala support over 30 years of space grants for artists, small businesses and community-centric art classes.

CillaVee’s The Rhizomatic Collective Unconscious Dreamcatcher was also the poster for the Black Mountain College Museum’s 13th annual {Re}Happening!
