Monkeyhouse has gathered karen Krolak, Cassandre Charles, Nicole Harris, and Jason Ries to dig into questions of grief, disability, and cultural disconnection through public performing arts projects. As our team witnessed how the pandemic reshaped traditions for grieving, conversations about access, and memorial monuments, they began to imagine interactive events for public spaces to foster empathy within and between communities. Monkeyhouse is an award-winning nonprofit that connects communities through choreography.
