[PhiladelphiaDANCE.org Listserv] DANCE STUDIES COLLOQUIUM

[PhiladelphiaDANCE.org]

The Institute for Dance Scholarship of the Dance Department at the Boyer
College of Music and Dance, Temple University, announces the 2016-17 Dance
Studies Colloquium. A list of speakers, topics, and dates follows. The
Colloquium extends through the entire year and affords the opportunity for
a sustained conversation on the state of dance and dance studies: speakers
include both scholars and artists.



These events are free and open to the public. Unless otherwise specified,
all presentations are on Tuesdays, 5:30 - 7pm at the Center for Humanities
at Temple (CHAT) Lounge, Gladfelter Hall, 10th fl., Temple University. Live
streaming available at www.temple.edu/boyer/dance/RR.



Parking is available in a TU parking lot (hourly, reasonable) at Berks and
11th. Gladfelter Hall is the first high-rise building when entering TU's
main campus from Berks and 11th, two blocks from the Septa Regional Rail TU
station.



Dance Studies Colloquium is a dynamic interactive speaker series designed
to facilitate a dialogue about emerging topics and issues related to dance.
It brings together artists and scholars to explore how we initiate and
assimilate ideas and events and our resulting actions within the field of
dance.
