Program

This conversation will focus on the Artistic Perspective of Reframing the Narrative. Panelists will include Artistic Directors from the visiting companies and choreographer Donald Byrd. How do the mission and vision of each of these participating companies relate to the era in which their organizations were founded? How does geography and regionality define their artistic trajectories? And what does participating in this project, Reframing the Narrative, mean for each organization, if anything?
