Monkeyhouse has truly enjoyed collaborating with Brooklyn based, Eva Dean Dance on oodles of projects over the last few years. Her workshop at the first Against the Odds festival was a huge hit with everyone in the company and sparked ideas for several of the pieces that we developed for the second festival. If you missed that workshop or are looking for another chance to play with Eva, she will be bringing her playful process to MOMA on Friday, April 18 as part of the MOMA Art Lab. Personally, I am tempted to try to finagle a way to get our incoming group of interns down to this workshop. Hmmmm.

At any rate, here are all the details you will need to join EVA DEAN DANCE's BOUNCE SURFING Extravaganza at MoMA! Dress comfortably! Wear clothing to move in.
