Discussion with the original Black Dance Stories team on making their weekly online program that celebrates Black creatives
About this Event

This event will take place in person at the Library for the Performing Arts.

In 2020, a small group of Black artists created an online platform for Black dance artists to share their practice with the world. Since that time, Black Dance Stories has grown to become a weekly livestream series that highlights and celebrates Black creatives through story sharing, interviewing dance practitioners like Bebe Miller & Kyle Abraham, Nia Love, and Maria Bauman Morales. The series platforms Black artists who use their talents to progress and broadcast activism.

In this evening discussion, we welcome the original Black Dance Stories team members, Charmaine Warren, Kimani Fowlin and Cynthia Tate. Through stories and process, they share the joy of making the weekly online program as they continue their mission to work as a community to support, uphold, highlight, and celebrate Black creatives.
