Join us virtually every Wednesday in September from 1:00-2:00 PM EST

Shimmy Shift Pivot is a thought provoking webinar and workshop series that engages leaders in the arts and academia to tackle divisive issues such as race, colonization, identity and gender violence as they are experienced through the lens of dance.  

Artfully facilitated by scholar- artist and Hanan Arts Founder, Tiffany Madera, these conversations aim to tackle the issues of our day with a new vernacular/framework that expands our vision, empathy, connection and creativity.

Presented in partnership by MDC Live Arts Miami and Hanan Arts.
