WHAT I AM DOING NOW...

I miss dancing with people, taking weight in motion. 

​

I am hosting an event Dec. 11th 2020 to have a place of shared inspiration, a way to support artists I believe in and, well, to feel a connection to the wide array of dance artists that inspire us. A TEST DRIVE 1.0

I have had the amazing opportunity to be the Dance Artist in Residence at the School of Theater, Dance, and Performance Studies at the University of Maryland this fall. This position has been surprising and challenging. I get to work consistently with students, I am part of the production committee which means I'm helping  plan next season's productions and I  am working with graduate students on a new film. There have been many other new academia experiences... My colleagues are incredibly supportive and inspiring.  

​

Earlier this year- on March 20, 2020, on this very page I wrote, "these are wild times. I feel scared, humbled, hopeful, and completely wrecked. COVID-19 pulled every possible rug... Please reach out below if you need someone to chat with.  I hope you are feeling supported..." This still rings true; and I would add Black Lives Matter. Lets exchanges resources.

​

These words still resonate.  

 xo, MG
