National Sawdust: Amy Hall Garner
Free
A fellow from our season-long collaboration with the Center for Ballet Arts at NYU, Alabama-born choreographer Amy Hall Garner is a graduate of Juilliard and has created commissioned works for Ailey II, the Juilliard School and Barnard College, among others. Over the course of her fellowship, she will explore the ephemerality of flowers in their natural and abstract forms for a production that brings together music, dance, and art with collaborator Jared Small. Garner was one of the first recipients of the Joffrey Ballet’s Choreography of Color Award (now titled Winning Works). She has taught at American Ballet Theatre and Joffrey Ballet School summer intensives; currently, she is an adjunct professor at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. This event is part of National Sawdust’s Digital Discovery Festival.
The broadcast will take place at 6pm Eastern / 3pm Pacific.
