Talking Dance in the Desert with AZ PBS

I had the wonderful opportunity to be interviewed by Horizonte AZ PBS for my work on Dance in the Desert. Check out the interview and article here.

Dance in the Desert brought Latinx dancemakers together for three-day inaugural convening that was held in Phoenix, April 26-28, 2018. Conceived and organized by Tucson-based choreographer and dancer Yvonne Montoya, Dance in the Desert arrives at a critical point for Latinx dancemakers: a moment of aesthetic innovation grounded in the experiences of Latinx communities.
