Dances for Solidarity: Letter Writing Sessions with Sarah Dahnke
Company: Brooklyn Studios for Dance
Venue: Brooklyn Studios for Dance
Location: Brooklyn, NY
Dances for Solidarity invites you to participate in weekly letter writing workshops to incarcerated people in solitary confinement.
Tuesdays | 6:30-8:30PM
FREE | Adults
RSVP | dancesforsolidarity@gmail.com
Together the participants will devise a list of simple movement gestures that are open to interpretation and will mail this list, along with a short letter, to a variety of incarcerated people. The incarcerated people are invited to perform these gestures in sequence, as many times as they like, when they are feeling anxious, stressed, angry or need an outlet for boredom or an activity.
Sarah Dahnke is a Brooklyn-based choreographer, multimedia artist, and arts educator. She creates performance experiences that often feature non-performers, highlighting and celebrating the nuances of natural, untrained human movement.
