Dear Jalen,
Congratulations for being one of the official selections for Dance Up! A National Platform for Emerging Teen Choreogrpahers. We are truly sorry that the COVID-19 pandemic prevents us from sharing your work with the public at 92Y Harkness Dance Center in New York, but we nevertheless celebrate your achievement and wish to award you with this attached Certificate of Artistic Achievement.
Your dance was chosen by the selection committee of Kimberly Bartosik, Dani Cole, Taryn Kaschock Russell and John-Mario Sevilla for its demonstration of artistic merit, which was based on the dance’s theme, development, composition, invention and performance. Please find a list of this yearʻs other talented recipients.
We wish you much success in all of your endeavors, especially in all of your artistic and choreographic efforts. Keep up the excellent work!
Sincerely,
John-Mario Sevilla
Director of Professional Development and Performance
