Wagner College Partners with Brooklyn’s Mark Morris Dance Center
Wagner College and The Mark Morris Dance Group, a nationally regarded company based in Brooklyn, have started a new pilot program for Wagner's Dance Education students. The teacher training opportunity, arranged by Rusty Curcio, head of dance at Wagner College, allows Wagner students to participate in Mark Morris Dance Center's Teaching Artist Training program while simultaneously taking classes at Wagner. Micah Hale, Francesca Mandry, Sabrina Conte, and Meliti Efthymiou are the first four Wagner students to join the pilot. They began professional development workshops at the Mark Morris Dance Center three days a week beginning this month, paying the cost of the program as a part of their tuition.
