Choreography Conference // Winner of the 2022 conference is dancer and BCB Soloist Chloe Bickford

“Courage to Change is my first official choreographed work, and it has inspired me to push beyond my boundaries. I incorporated my own struggles in creating this piece to bring you a journey of highs and lows, a discovery of hope and community, showing courage truly can create unity.” - Chloe

You can see Chloe’s piece performed on November 13th in Ethereal Visions Mixed Repertoire/New Works.
