2024 MINNESOTA DANCE SUMMIT 2 – CONNECTIONS

ABOUT THE SUMMIT:
This workshop will explore legacy – personal legacy, community legacy, artifacts, memory, and more. Mary Harding, Dance Education Specialist at Perpich Center, has been working on teacher identity in her work – a combination of social identity, personal movement characteristics, and embedded dance histories. This work has been a background for thinking about the many recent developments in our dance community. Come together with a community of educators to talk about and record our histories, both personal and shared.

At Dance Summit 2, we will begin with a movement class taught by Carlo Antonio Villanueva, a new faculty member at the University of Minnesota. Then, Mathew Janczewski of Arena Dance and Studio Stories and Mary Harding will lead you in a session of remembering. We will have structures and questions and paper and markers – everything to begin the process of sharing your history.

Our interconnectedness is both known and unknown. Let’s explore our connections.
