Boot Camp program for Dance Students, 2015

The Boot Camp is a program of the NYC Department of Education, Office of Special Projects, and Lincoln Center Education.  For the second summer, entering 8th grade students in Music, Dance, Theater and Visual Arts spend 2 weeks working on the auditions and portfolio presentations, as well as technique and repertory, to prepare for applications to the specialized high school programs in the arts.

The 35 dance students had an orientation tour of the material in the Circulating and Research Collections, saw the Geoffrey Holder exhibition and viewed videos.  JRDD staff member Arlene Yu worked with the teachers to program the films.
