Ohhh the memory of this last event was a great one, @fultonarts Dance Week 2019 Closing RECEPTION, “HONORS INNOVATION” held at the @thefoxtheatre . The director of Dance Week, @lyrriccosbyjackson really created an inclusion line up of various events for the entire week like no other. In my opinion, she made Dance Week history here in Georgia. Each engagement was amazing! So on this day we closed the event by honoring stage, film and dance legend, @iamjasmineguy , and dance innovator, @jueldlane . This event brought together art mobilizers and dance practitioners to celebrate two visionaries from Fulton County that are changing the intersection of dance and artistic expression. Check out these memories and hopefully next year we all will be here to connect, hug, and dance together again in the same space for Dance Week 2121. Support the Arts and WASH YA HANDS. #shocphoto #danceweek2019 #danceweek #atlanta #atlartist #dance #dancers #dancephotographer #dancephotography #eventphotog #picoftheday #community #events #supportthearts #foxtheatre #connection #fultoncounty https://www.instagram.com/p/B_u229JhEIW/?igshid=13h1k2v0w4dhr

@fultonarts Dance Week 2019 was totally a week for all to enjoy. On this day the lovely ladies of @giwayenmata presented a performance and workshop for Seniors at the South Fulton Arts Center. Seniors were bussed in from local nursing homes. They engaged in West African movements directly from their chairs and wheelchairs. It was heart warming to witness and full of joy. #shocphoto #danceweek2019 #danceweek #atlanta #atlartist #dance #dancers #dancephotographer #dancephotography #eventphotog #picoftheday #community #events #supportthearts #free #danceclass #westafrican #giwayenmata https://www.instagram.com/p/B_pnwe-h70m/?igshid=akhf65g4f3qk

Next we ran over to the @anthonyburrellcenterfordance to catch Anthony Burrell in action teaching an Open Horton class for @fultonarts Dance Week2019. The students were drenched in sweat as the Lester Horton technique challenged to strengthen and lengthen the body from head to toe. #shocphoto #danceweek2019 #danceweek #atlanta #atlartist #dance #dancers #dancephotographer #dancephotography #eventphotog #picoftheday #community #events #supportthearts #free #danceclass #modern #lesterhorton https://www.instagram.com/p/B_nR4UtBmdb/?igshid=1k8wsawuk5o1c

@fultonarts Dance Week 2019 collaboration with various studios to offer FREE dance classes continued throughout the whole week. On this day, @terminusmbt (Terminus Modern Ballet Theatre) offered a Beginner Adult Ballet Class for adult ages 18 and up with little to no previous dance experience. This class was full of smiles and joy as students pushed forward to engage in their first ballet class, as for some all because of what Dance Week offered. #shocphoto #danceweek2019 #danceweek #atlanta #atlartist #dance #dancers #dancephotographer #dancephotography #eventphotog #picoftheday #community #events #supportthearts #danceclass #ballet #modern #technique. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_mrXwCB2nE/?igshid=1icmsq8mougvi

I want to flash back to this time last year when I was commissioned to capture @fultonarts #DANCEWEEK2019! I had a blast so why not dedicate this week to sharing all the wonderful events that took place. @lyrriccosbyjackson (she is so dope) you created a great line-up of events. Documenting this week was so much fun and I can’t wait to do it again in the future...First up was the “DANCE WEEK Kick-Off”, a lunchtime dance party in the heart of @downtownatlanta ! The community shared smiles, cool dance moves, and great energy! #shocphoto #danceweek2019 #danceweek #atlanta #atlartist #dance #dancers #eventphotog #picoftheday #community #events #smiles #coolmoves #greatenergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B_fNiR9hfaT/?igshid=1o5unh3zraoby
