SUMMARY:Shabbat Voices: Liz Lerman
DESCRIPTION:The Choreography of Being Jewish\n\nFor our third Shabbat Voices of the season\, please welcome choreographer and MacArthur Genius Award winner\, Liz Lerman. \n\n\n\n\n\nLiz Lerman is a choreographer\, performer\, writer\, teacher\, and speaker. She has spent the past four decades making her artistic research personal\, funny\, intellectually vivid\, and up to the minute. A key aspect of her artistry is opening her process to everyone from shipbuilders to physicists\, construction workers to ballerinas\, resulting in both research and experiences that are participatory\, relevant\, urgent\, and usable by others. Her choreography has examined everything from her days as a go-go dancer in 1974 to investigating the matters of our origins by putting dancers in the tunnels of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. \nShe founded Liz Lerman Dance Exchange in 1976 and cultivated the company’s unique multi-generational ensemble into a leading force in contemporary dance until 2011\, when she handed the artistic leadership of the company over to the next generation of Dance Exchange artists. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored by Estelle Quain and Sy Dubow in memory of Myrna Seidman \n  \nUPCOMING SPEAKERS \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarch 21st\nFaith\, Social Justice\, and America: A Family Story\nSpeaker: Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush\, President and CEO of Interfaith Alliance\nSponsor: Polly Panitz\, Allen Joseph\, and Stephen Isaacson in memory of Susana (Zsuzsi) Isaacson \nApril 18th\nWomen in Leadership: Victories and Ongoing Challenges\nSpeaker: Rachel Gildiner\, Executive Director of the Safety\, Respect and Equity Network\nSponsor: Phyllis Lerner\, to advance greater inclusivity and equity in our world \n\n\n\n\nJune 20th\nDoubt Science and the Degradation of Expertise\nSpeaker: Dr. David Michaels\, former Ass’t Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) and member of Adat Shalom\nSponsor: Claire Engers and David Silberman in memory of Charles and Arlene Silberman
