EMPOWERMENT: Bella Lewitzky Dance Classes
Join us for two dance classes inspired by Bella Lewitzky!
Bella-Inspired Parent + Me Dance Class 10:30am-11:30am Taught by LMU Professor Kristen Smiarowski for walking toddlers through age 4 year old children with caregivers. Siblings and pre-walkers can join, as long as each child has an adult. Make it a family affair! Intermediate/Advanced Lewitzky Dance Class 12:00pm-1:30pm Taught by Walter Kennedy, who was a principal dancer with Lewitzky Dance Company for nearly twenty years and served the company's rehearsal director from 1990 until the company's farewell performance in 1997. Accompanied percussionist T.J. Troy, this class is for the intermediate/professional trained dancer.
This event is part of The City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs Performing Arts Division (DCA|PERF)s EMPOWERMENT program, which honors women artists and activists who have impacted and redefined the human experience. EMPOWERMENT is a festival-style weekend of performances, social action, creative workshops, and documentary screenings.
In 2024, EMPOWERMENT is honoring the work of two National Medal of the Arts winners: Maxine Hong Kingston, an American born Chinese writer and educator and Bella Lewitzky, an American choreographer and life long advocate for artistic freedom in dance. EMPOWERMENT: Maxine + Bella celebration will include three days of arts activities at DCAs Lankershim Arts Center, located in the heart of the NoHo Arts District at: 5108 Lankershim Boulevard, North Hollywood, CA 91601.
