Summer/Fall Events--Save the Dates!

Dear Friends,

Hope you are having a fabulous summer! Just thought we’d let you know about some new developments with SPINE. Here’s what we’re up to for the rest of the summer into fall. Save the dates! Hope to see you at any/all of these:

EVENTS

AUGUST 6th
Cory Nakasue in conversation with Aynsely Vandenbrouke at Mount Tremper Arts’ Food for the Arts Friday nights. The two share critical writings and a sneak peek at their research and development of new work. New media writer, Alan Sondheim is scheduled to perform as well.
Don’t miss four nights of dance choreographed by NYC’s freshest talent alongside established veterans. This year the DanceNOW/NYC Festival is issuing a challenge to NYC choreographers to create a new work or present a repertory work of seven minutes or less, that offers a concise, clear, and complete artistic statement. The artist that best meets the DanceNOW Challenge will be awarded a week-long residency at Silo at Kirkland Farm in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, along with a $1,000 residency stipend, and a paid teaching opportunity at DeSales University. Cory Nakasue will be there on the selection panel.
