MASTERCLASS HOSTS
White Bird is proud to have offered masterclasses with nearly every company that they have brought to Portland. However, for the 2021/22 season White Bird will not be offering any masterclasses for the health and safety of the artists and participants. Part of our mission is to continue fostering the growth of the local dance scene in Portland through workshops and masterclasses around town.








COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS










Friday Night Post-Show Talk Backs
White Bird facilitates audience talk backs for three-run shows at the Newmark Theatre. Talk backs are a way for our patrons to further engage with the choreographers and dancers from visiting companies by asking questions and gaining a unique insight into their craft.
For our 21/22 season, we will not be hosting talk backs. Keep an eye out for information about future talk backs.
