We’re excited to announce a series of online events to celebrate the return of a Dance Mag with two brand-new issues! Before we dive into this fresh new cycle, we’d like to take a moment to reflect on the journey so far by revisiting our past editions with you. Starting Thursday, January 23, at 5 PM CET, we will hosting virtual gatherings for five consecutive weeks, offering our community an intimate platform to reflect on past issues and discover the ideas shaping future editions.
The event series will be hosted by Jana Al Obeidyine, the editor-in-chief, and moderated by Abby Hohenstatt, a friend of the magazine with a unique perspective on corporeality in transnational independent magazines. Each session will spotlight contributors and editors from previous and upcoming issues, providing insights into their contributions and the creative processes behind the magazine.
These are informal and friendly get-togethers where everyone is welcome to contribute to the conversation. Sessions details:
