Join movers, makers, artists, and leaders from communities near and far to explore tools and practices for collaborating and creating across generations. This Institute explores intergenerational collaboration through Dance Exchange’s creative tools and practices and introduces participants to artists and collaborators connected to current projects.
As part of our Organizing with Artists for Change Initiative (OAC), Dance Exchange Institutes embrace process and performance, dialogue and dancemaking, and the role of artists as changemakers. The 2023 OAC Winter Institute will include movement classes and workshops that delve into creative tools and practices from Dance Exchange as well as our peers and collaborators. Facilitation of the 2023 OAC Winter Institute will rotate each day to include a range of voices and perspectives including Dance Exchange staff and partnering artists.
