The Dance Center of Columbia College Chicago

The Dance Center of Columbia College Chicago has curated CIRCLES, a series of engagements exhibiting the creative power and prowess of the African American female experience through the lens of Staycee Pearl, for our Spring 2023 season. The blending of popular dance styles, club music, fashion, and femininity with an undeniable contemporary based movement vocabulary is hallmark in this work. We are excited to share this innovative mash up with the local dance community as well as Columbia students.
