Artist and researcher Henry McPherson leads an online workshop introducing Free Improvisation at home. Participants of any experience are invited to explore the relationship between sound, voice, body, and space, in this virtual gathering. A series of exercises will bring the group into a shared space of sonic and bodily exploration.
Intended workshop audience
For adults. Those with prior experience improvising are very welcome, but the content will also be accessible to beginners. All bodies, voices, minds welcome.
Workshop limited to 15 participants
