As season 7 is coming to a strong finish, please know we appreciate the time and energy you have shared with us thus far. We hope to see you at one (or more) of these final events of the season!
Our work is meant to spark a conversation, build connection, and remind us that we are not alone. If you haven’t had a chance to share space with us this season, it’s not too late! We’ve got four incredible events coming up and all of these events are free and open to the public thanks to the generosity of our partners. Details below.
April 15th at 5p-6p: A new iteration of Understanding Otherness will be happening at Escalante Center in Tempe this Saturday! Our shows are always evolving so come see what has changed and continue the conversation from our last Q&A. This event is made possible by the Tempe Union High School District and the City of Tempe.

April 21st at 7p: We will be sharing an excerpt of Understanding Otherness at Take Back The Night this year as part of our ongoing partnership with La Frontera. We are excited to return to this event in-person this year. The event itself is from 6-9p at ASU's Tempe campus. More information in the attached flyer.
April 27th 6-9p: Want to perform with us? Join us as part of the Artivist Festival at ASU where you can participate in a workshop from 6-7:30p to learn the performance score and then perform on stage with us at 8p. More details about this event and what to expect will be rolling out in our newsletter and on social media so be sure to subscribe and follow to receive those updates. The Artivist Festival is a two-day dance film festival dedicated to promoting activism and advocacy through the arts held by ASU DUOS (Dance Undergraduate Organizational Support). This festival is a modality for bringing people together and creating spaces for empathy, understanding, and community.
