Episode 13: "Its so important to show up for each other"
b'
This week Festival Director Anne Morris chats with choreographers Vania Claiborne, Taryn Griggs, and Laura Gutierrez. We have a candid conversation about the realities of being a dance artist during the pandemic, the connection between dancing and processing current events, the cost of the gig lifestyle as a choreographer, and what to do if you eat, sleep, breathe dance. These artists share how they are starting to answer some of the questions that the pandemic has raised about what is important in a dance career, and we discuss the new workshop Dance Project is starting February 14, called Maker\\u2019s Space. Taryn Griggs will facilitate this workshop for dance makers, designed to reconnect artists with their creative practice and with each other.
