This free community event, produced in collaboration with loveDANCEmore artist-in-residence Rae Luebbert is a non-curated forum for new dance and performance work-in-progress. Join us after the show for a structured discussion. Apply here for future 2023-24 Monday Lab dates. Contact Rae at rae@lovedancemore.org for more info.

Below is our recent panel discussion on queerness and arts education in Utah, hosted by Alexandra Barbier and including panelists Hannah Huang, Tori Meyer, and Jazzmine Pike. This conversation is part of a program partially funded by Project Rainbow which supports queer arts educators in Utah and includes dance residencies at Rose Park and Escalante Elementary Schools.

While you’re here, take a moment to enjoy our virtual gallery show celebrating the photographers that document dance in Utah…

Through the Eyes of a Dancer which takes its title from a book by dance critic Wendy Perron, celebrates the last decade of choreographic innovation in Utah and the ongoing inevitable encounter between dance and photography. See some of the photographers and visual artists who diligently document Utah dance. These artists provide a tremendous, often invisible support to our dance community. This show is our effort to reciprocate by turning the lens back toward their artistry. Each of the artists in the show has had their work featured on the cover of a loveDANCEmore performance journal, often celebrating a dance artist on the other side of the camera. We’ve taken some of these beautiful images and reframed them as they’ve never been seen before — on their own. We’ve also asked these artists to provide a few of their favorite “outtakes” — images that have never been shared before.
