“As the light shifts, new thoughts and perspectives are revealed. We see each other differently and begin to understand each other better.”
Janice Rosario is a nationally recognized contemporary dance choreographer, educator, and activist. As a native New Yorker, Janice studied at some of NYC’s most elite institutions including Ballet Hispánico, Ballet Academy East, and The Ailey School. She is a graduate of LaGuardia High School for the Performing Arts and Hunter College. Through her work as an artist, educator and activist, Janice is driven to “create spaces where we can see each other past the divides to contribute to making an ever more inclusive community.”
Kristopher Estes-Brown is an American choreographer, composer, director, and educator. Estes-Brown grew up in Kansas City where he studied classical dance and music.
