Working Artists Retreat

July 2026, 2008

Designed as a creative retreat for working choreographers, this week provides an open ground for individual exploration and reflection, and group conversation about problems in current work. We share the studio between us and will also have access to an off-site studio. The daily structure, organized cooperatively by the participants, will include morning and evening gatherings to pose questions, share ideas and insights, and show work as desired. Think of this as time to get to the background of the work you want to do.

BEBE MILLER, choreographer, established Bebe Miller Company in 1985. After two decades of extensive touring the company is now structured as a “virtual company,” with collaborating artists living across the U.S. Bebe has made dances for DCDC, Philadanco, Oregon Ballet Theatre and Boston Ballet, and has been honored with four Bessie Awards, a Guggenheim Fellowship and an American Choreographer’s Award. Currently serving on the Boards of Bearnstow, Danspace Project, Dance USA and Dance Theater Workshop, she resides in Columbus, Ohio and has been a Professor in Dance at The Ohio State University since 2000.
