Join us for a one-day symposium as we celebrate the founder of the Laban/Bartenieff Institute of Movement Studies (LIMS), Irmgard Bartenieff. Learn about Bartenieff's path through her professional life in an interactive exhibit ‘Irmgard Bartenieff: a Personal Journey through Dance’. Come in and explore the exhibition, step into an icosahedron, play with a Kinect, and see the historic materials on display. The exhibit is up for a year, the symposium is free, but registration is required.
