The  Site-Specific Workshop with Sally Jacques offers insight into the making and creating of work in a non-traditional environment.  Students participate directly on-site, collaborating and experiencing the process of site-specific dance. During the workshop, participants learn techniques on a 48 foot wide and 25-foot high scaffold structure. This workshop is led by award-winning and founder of Blue Lapis Light, Sally Jacques.
