Pentacle's Innovative National Program Help Desk
at the Dance/USA Conference
Pentacle Director Ivan Sygoda and Help Desk Director Felicia Rosenfeld will introduce you to this unique program currently running in Los Angeles, and describe Pentacle's plans to bring Help Desk to Chicago and other U.S. cities. More importantly, we want to get your feedback on the Program and hear your perspectives and thoughts about infrastructure needs in your dance communities. You will receive a tasty breakfast and an honorarium for your participation. Friday, July 15th 7:30AM - 9:00AM Hyatt Regency McCormick Place Chicago, IL Please see concierge for room number RSVP: angelal@pentacle.org Help Desk supports the professional infrastructure of contemporary dance companies and independent choreographers. The program works with participants to develop a strong sense of community and empowerment. At the heart of Help Desk are two equally important relationships: the one between artist/company and mentor and the one between artist/company and the Help Desk community. The mentor relationship provides participants with personalized strategic planning, guidance and infrastructure support over a sustained period of time. Artists and non-performing partners attend regular meetings sharing challenges and solutions. Through the process, participants build a more supportive, empowered community. |
