Shimmy Shift Pivot // Hanan Arts
Making Space for Challenging Dialogue 

Moving Borders: Transforming Cultural Violence 

Wednesday, September 1, 2021 - 1:00-2:00 PM EST

As traditional dances are practiced and performed globally across cultures, we explore the line between identity, artistic exploration, and cultural appropriation.

Speakers:

  • Helene Eriksen, Dancer, Ethnologist

  • Roxxanne Shelaby, dancer

  • Tiffany Madera, moderator


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 with MDC Live Arts Miami and Hanan Arts.
