At the end of each academic year, we sit with each Theatre major and review your progress.  We discuss your production work, class work, and career trajectory.  We also sit down with graduating seniors for what we call an Exit Interview.  This year, these will be attended by two or more instructors including Jessie Chapman, Danee Gosselin, Matt Kizer,  and Hannah Murray.   We’ve arranged sign-up slots based on which instructors are available at different times. Depending on your option, you will have a combination of the instructors listed.  We’ve slated some options for specific days based on instructors’ availability. Each slot is marked with which mentors are available.K=Kizer.   D=Danee.  J=Jessie.   H=Hannah. YOU EACH ONLY NEED TO SIGN UP FOR ONE SLOT. Sign up here.

I received this email today. I do not know anyone at this company, but it looks intriguing. Greetings Matt, I hope this finds you well, in good health, and thriving.  I’m writing to share information about Artichoke Dance Company’s Artichoke Ambassador’s In-Person Summer Intensive in Brooklyn. The week-long program immerses participants in both art and activism practices that can be utilized to counter climate change. Participants will learn about environmental justice principles, investigate their own interests in arts and activism, and create their own project, campaign, or develop an aspect of their career alongside a cohort of like-minded individuals.  I’m asking that you share the attached flyer with your students and alumni. You can also learn more about the program by visiting our website – linked here. Scholarships are available and are considered on a rolling basis until funds are eliminated. I am happy to answer any questions or schedule a time to discuss the program if it is of interest to you. Thank you for sharing this opportunity. Looking forward, Lynn
