Led by Tony Carnell and Ramon Rodriguez, this class was designed to introduce the youth to dance choreography and performance. Through movement, this program gives a voice to the children who have not had the chance to be part of something bigger. Teaching artists provide fun activities throughout the work as it progresses, and concludes with a public final performance.
The Community Transitional School (CTS) takes pride in enrolling students who have experienced being “hidden homeless” with their transient families in Multnomah County. Heidi Duckler Dance/Northwest acknowledged this as opportunity to bring a new aspect of performance art to their lives.
HDD/NW is deeply committed to the transformative power of artistic expression and believes in its capacity to foster joy and justice through multidisciplinary collaboration between artists and communities throughout the Pacific Northwest.
