Join guest artist Constance Dinapoli–model for Alex Katz and dancer formerly with Paul Taylor Dance Company—for a very special movement workshop in the spirit of exchange between artist, choreographer, and muse. Alongside Dinapoli, guests will explore movement from the dances spotlighted in the exhibition Alex Katz: Theater and Dance. The workshop is specifically designed with adults 55+ in mind with any degree of mobility, though people of all ages are welcome, and no prior dance experience is necessary. We welcome you to move along with Connie either seated or standing.
