Prior to tonight's performance, the Cowan Center partnered with Tyler Junior College Academy of Dance to present an exclusive master class with Martha Graham Dance Company.
“One of the most rewarding aspects of presenting internationally acclaimed artists at the Cowan Center is creating opportunities for our local students to engage with them beyond the stage,” said Jeff Noblitt, UT Tyler Cowan Center executive director. “We’re excited to partner with TJC once again, following the success of last season’s Parsons Dance Company master class, to allow students to learn directly from these artists in a classroom setting.”
One of the Martha Graham Dance Company members conducted the class for students of the TJC Academy of Dance.
“Our students are buzzing with excitement over this special occasion, not only for the master class, but for the opportunity to watch these dancers live on stage at the Cowan Center,” said Carolyn Hanna, TJC Academy of Dance director. “Anytime a world-class modern dance company performs in Tyler, it’s an exciting event, and we hope the community will join us in attending this exhilarating performance.”
Tickets are still available to tonight's performance, including special priced $20 tickets for students with code MARTHA. www.cowancenter.org/shows/martha-graham-dance-company
