About this Event
Join the Jerome Robbins Dance Division for its annual symposium, where the current class of Dance Research Fellows will present their projects on Mikhail Baryshnikov and his legacy.
The Jerome Robbins Dance Division’s annual symposium is the culmination of the Dance Research Fellowship, an annual cohort of dance scholars and artists invited to research a specific aspect of dance. This year’s class features Marina Harss, Marcelline Mandeng Nken, Maria Vinogradova, Brian Seibert, Alessandra Nicifero, and Jordan Demetrius Lloyd.
The symposium consists of an all-day series of presentations by these fellows at the Library for the Performing Arts.
