Get ready for an evening of music and film at Storm King on Friday, Saturday, August 13, presented by Rooftop Films and lululemon athletica.

This incredible journey features a performance by Bruce Levingston on piano and short films on multiple separate screens across the park. Visitors are invited to explore the grounds as they walk from one screen to the next, experiencing sculpture and experimental film under a starlit sky.

Screenings will feature pieces by Dennis Oppenheim, Will Lamson, and Caroline Monnet, as well as more contemporary experimental films, which explore sculpture, movement, landscape, and perception.
