International Interdisciplinary Lab

​​Friday & Saturday, August 9 & 10, 2024

Location:

Movement Research

Details:

Come investigate and experience ways that movement, sound, image, and performance can inform human culture. With multiple workshops each day, teaching artists who have just engaged in a 5-day International Interdisciplinary Artists Consortium (IIAC) Residency join with participants from around the world to create an embodied dialogue at the intersection of modalities—contemporary dance, improvisation, voice, sound, visual art, social rituals, walking practices, and more. Open to all backgrounds and experiences.
