MOLD (Moving Out LouD), presents its first summit highlighting the voices and experiences of Black artists in the dance community.

Co-sponsored by Marymount Manhattan College and The Black Iris Project, and initiated by students at the College, MOLD is a one-day summit designed to promote diversity in dance by providing an inclusive and informative arena for millennial dancers of color through dialogue and movement. The mission of MOLD is to empower the millennial generation to ignite change within our dance community by identifying issues of discrimination within the field and bring awareness to these inequalities.
