Description
Celebrate the start of the new arts season at this open-bar kickoff party featuring a very special half-hour performance at 9:30 pm by Caelum Music Productions amazing singer Cáthia, the “little girl with the big voice” who sang her way to prominence on season four of NBC’s “The Voice”. Performing at 8:30 pm will be Caelum’s singer/songwriter Elizabeth Sullivan, whose vocal stylings have been compared to Sara McLaughlin, Joni Mitchell, and Eva Cassidy.
The party serves to raise awareness for DecadesOut and its mission to develop and produce works of fiction and nonfiction in film, theatre, visual arts and multimedia that transform the discourse between science and society through an artistic platform. Events for the 2013-14 season, under the banner the Systems Festival, will include the Third Annual Science of Horror Film Festival, the Launch Pad Theatre Development Series, and the Documentary Film Lab. Events will also present work from filmmakers, visual artists, technologists, mainstream chefs and musical entertainers with panel discussions, exhibitions and live performance. Numerous events highlighting the interactions between scientists and artists are being planned, including those with an educational focus in coordination with NY local schools.
The October 26th Kickoff Party also marks the opening of the call for entries for both the Science of Horror Film Festival and the Launch Pad Theatre Development Series.
In honor of the Science of Horror Film Festival, the fundraiser is also an optional Halloween Party where guests are welcome to dress the part.

About Your Host DecadesOut
DecadesOut is is a New York City based non-profit whose mission is to raise public awareness of the cultural impact between science and humanity and transform the discourse between them through an artistic platform; to explore related issues that speak to our existence in this world; and to help artist’s share perceptions of our life on earth that may have been otherwise hidden.
To accomplish this, DecadesOut will develop and produce works of fiction and non-fiction of the highest artistic standards in the disciplines of theatre, film, video, literature, and the visual arts. The work of DecadesOut looks toward the future to find where the power of science acts in accord with the spirit of humankind, as well as honor the role that scientists, engineers, explorers and educators have and will play as ambassadors in the understanding of this fundamental relationship.
