This week Saturday, October 10th from 3-5pm “Proof of Life” by the Death Penalty Project will be hosted at the National Public Housing Museum. Register for free for in our bio.

“The Death Penalty Project takes an in-depth look at the anti-death penalty organizing and strategies of those on death row in Illinois and their allies. Their organizing played a key role in Illinois’ 2000 moratorium on executions, 2003 blanket commutation of all death sentences, and 2011 abolition of the death penalty. By sharing the strategies that moved Illinois to abolish the death penalty—and the lessons learned along the way—our documentary provides a roadmap for state-level movements to end the death penalty across the U.S.”

Check out our Two Day workshop this week! This workshop will focus on both Multi level technique and Bulerias structure and improvisation. Multi level technique: This workshop is dedicated to strengthening and refining flamenco dance technique. Classes will focus on posture, alignment, footwork clarity and power, coordination, arms and upper body movement, musical precision, and overall efficiency of movement. Ideal for dancers who want to build a strong technical foundation and improve control, stamina, and confidence. AND Bulerias Structure and Improvisation: This focused workshop explores the structure of bulerías, providing dancers with a clear understanding of compás, phrasing, llamadas, cierres, and remates. Dancers will learn how structure supports improvisation, helping them move beyond memorization toward confident, informed decision-making in both class and performance settings.

When: Aug 22nd and 23rd 10a-11a Multi level Technique 11a-12:30p Bulerias Structure and Improvisation

Where: 1729 S. Halsted.
