with Staycee Pearl
This event is a Core Conversation at the 2020 Pittsburgh Humanities Festival. See the full Core Conversation lineup here.
Staycee Pearl will discuss creating meaningful opportunities in movement and art residencies, classes and workshops for pre and professional artists of color through her work as a dancer, choreographer, and artist director. Staycee’s experiences working with predominantly white dance companies and organizations inspired her to create a path for artists of color with programs designed specifically to be more inclusive.
Staycee Pearl is the co-artistic director of PearlArts Studios and STAYCEE PEARL dance project, where she creates artful experiences through dance-centered multimedia works in collaboration with her husband and artistic collaborator, Herman Pearl. Staycee received her initial dance training at the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center. Staycee is passionate about sharing resources and creating opportunities for the arts community by initiating project-generating programs including the Charrette Series, the In The Studio Series, and the PearlDiving Movement Residency.
