In alignment with its core values of Access, Community, and Excellence, The School at the Mark Morris Dance Group is hosting a program of events designed to celebrate the importance of diversity and representation in ballet and across the dance field. Events include a Family Fun Ballet class to engage young dancers and their families in this art form, a panel discussion of The School at the Mark Morris Dance Center faculty discussing what representation has meant to them in their careers, and an All Level Ballet class for students ages 10+. All participants in any part of this event will receive a free copy of Misty Copeland’s book Black Ballerinas.
