Are you tired of boring and predictable performance art? Then, join the Mavens of Madness, a group of female performers and artists, tonight at the Black Forge Coffee House for a display of art by women who are seen as “too much,” even by artists’ standards. They experiment in raw, interactive performances that express and flex their emotional agility, as they work out managing and experiencing their surroundings as female artists. Among the performers are a contortionist; a drag artist; an author/actress; and event organizer, The Mad Muse (pictured). -Lauren Ortego
