MOVE: Community Class attendees said, 

 

"Thank you for that lovely class today, Marisa, and for holding space for us at the end...just seeing all of us there together living in that moment of reflection was the first moment of togetherness and community I've felt this week."

 

 

MOVE: Melodies In Motion (on Zoom) attendees said,

 

"We had never seen anything like it before. We were observers for the most part, but we really enjoyed the way that the Ballaro Dance and Lux Mea worked together to put together an unusual and fun experience.  We marveled at the way the two groups were able to work together from a distance to become up with such a productive and interesting experience."

 

 

SHARE: Yappy Hour attendees on Zoom said, 

 

"It's so fun to meet new creatives, and much easier to be social from the comfort of your own home when you are an introvert :) "
