Join us on February 28 for an intimate showing that offers a window into MODArts Dance Collective’s creative process through the lens of the 2026 Collective Thread Residency Artists, marking the culmination of this seven-week residency.
As SKY LAB Artists, MODArts Dance Collective has continued the ongoing development of their Collective Thread Residency. Serving as an incubator for BIPOC *women-identifying dancers and choreographers, Collective Thread supports participants' reconnection to all forms of self—emotional, mental, spiritual and physical—and their creative practice through seasonal themes. This year’s theme, Self Care is Community Care centers on cultivating thoughtful concepts, methods and approaches to the creative process while exploring pathways to positive community impact.

About Collective Thread Residency
Collective Thread serves as an incubator for BIPOC *women-identifying dancers and choreographers, supporting their reconnection to all forms of self—emotional, mental, spiritual and physical—and their creative practice through seasonal themes. This year’s theme, Self Care is Community Care centers on cultivating thoughtful concepts, methods and approaches to the creative process while exploring pathways to positive community impact. The residency is offered free of charge to participating artists of all career levels, and concentrates on mindfulness practices, mobility, contemporary dance technique, composition and creative exploration, roundtable discussions, and reflective writing.
*MADC uses the term “women” to encompass all those who self-identify as women, including cisgender, transgender, nonbinary, and/or gender non-conforming.
