Siler City Art & Dance Improv Group

“As a teaching artist, my work is to support individuals of differing abilities, backgrounds and training to become collaborators and co-creators of dance  and artwork. The performance piece emerges from a theme, but is self-created authentically from the artists’ life experiences." - Maria Troiani-Howard, inclusive arts advocate.
