Maine-based Performance Artist Sara Juli will lead students through a workshop that teaches tools from her signature method of seamlessly fusing movement with text, as part of a process of generating material for autobiographical, introspective work.
Through journaling, dance improvisation, sound and text, participants will leave with a bit of choreography that acts as a portal to something vulnerable and personal. The workshop is appropriate for dance and/or theater artists or students and non-artists alike.
Please bring a notebook or paper and pen for writing.
