| "The
Williams Center is at the edge of the Lehigh Valley, and at the
cutting edge of contemporary arts. For 20 seasons director Ellis
Finger and gallery director Michiko Okaya have presented operatic
hip-hop dancers and performance-art photographers, countertenors
and hair sculptors, slam poets and a cellist who played, and destroyed,
a block of ice. Blending scholarship with entertainment, they’ve
made the center a school, a satellite, a multimedia mecca."
