Through diverse approaches, embodied practices, and high-caliber training, dancers are exposed to physical techniques and artistry that prepare them for college auditions, dance performances, and professional careers. The four-day event is designed for artists ages 14 and up who are seeking to deepen their dance practice and discover new techniques, forging connections that support a professional dance future.
Join MFA Dance students for an evening of experimental choreography developed in collaboration with UWM students, alumni, and the Milwaukee community. UpStart is a unique opportunity to experience choreography by artists from across the nation.
Featuring original choreography by our graduating seniors, this annual event reflects months of focused research, experimentation, and creative development. Over an intensive two-and-a-half-month process, students bring their artistic visions to life in performance. Come celebrate and support the next generation of artists.
