The first BMRC/Chicago Black Dance Legacy Project Intern!

This year, the BMRC is also supporting an additional student intern, Hope Houston, on an archiving initiative with the Chicago Black Dance Legacy Project. Hope is conducting primary research on dance collections at BMRC member institutions to acquire new materials for the online archive and will conduct oral history interviews with individuals important to the history of Black dance in the city.

Hope is a rising junior at the University of Chicago. Welcome, Hope! We are happy to have you!
