Apr 8th 2020

Representatives from several dance and performing arts organizations in Chicago recently convened to discuss this unprecedented crisis we face. That group affirmed that we are all contending with many of the same issues and asking similar questions. It became clear that this is time to assemble, not only to share useful information with one another, but also to reinforce our connection, compassion, creativity, and collective power.

This FREE event is open to everyone involved in the Chicago performing arts community. The event will be CAPTIONED. Registration: https://us04web.zoom.us/meeting/register/u5Epfu6rpjgswZX3q1TBdiUn6tnw6E1ZOA
