Dear Friends,
2017 has been a vast year of change for The Dance
COLEctive. I have continued to teach,
make work and perform while settling into a new mission and organizational
structure. This has meant looking
forward through new lenses, seeking new opportunities and tackling new
challenges. As I continue to move
forward I know that the organizational changes we made were timely, necessary
and in line with the rapidly changing landscape of the arts.
So far, 2018 is set to bring:
- Monday’s with Margi
- A Residency and Choreographic Commission at Riverside Brookfield High School
- A Residency and Choreographic Commission at Stevenson High School
- Performance and Teaching at the RAD Festival inKalamazoo, MI
- Teaching through Synapse Arts at Loyola Park in Chicago
- Solo Swaps
- A new visual identity
- A rehearsal residency and fall concert made possible by Dovetail Studios' subsidized space residency
You can keep track of what is happening on the calendar page at www.margicole.com.
Even though things have changed, TDC continues to maintain a
presence here and beyond. Thank you for
your participation in the audience, in the studio, on the stage and through
your donations, which are a vital part of the work we do. If you would like to make a year-end contribution

small, will help keep us thinking, making and moving!
Wishing you a happy and prosperous new year!
Sincerely,
Margi Cole
Artistic Director
You can't
connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You
have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This
approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
~ Steve Jobs
