Lead a Movement Based workshop with AoCC at MR

Pilot Workshop Series

The series is an opportunity for the artists of color community to share initial or early stage workshops based on their artistic practice and research. Leading artists will have access to Movement Research (MR) studio space and the Artists of Color Council (AoCC) for marketing and logistical support. Artists will have a post-workshop discussion with the Artists of Color Council which may include participant feedback.

The Artists of Color Council (AoCC) is a cohort of artists of color addressing cultural diversity, equity, and sustainable infrastructures in New York City’s dance communities and organizations under the auspices of Movement Research. Through inclusionary programming, curation, and advocacy, the council works to increase visibility, accessibility, and engagement with resources for movement based artists of color.
