When artist Jocelyn Pedersen, who teaches a class in Book Arts, learned that students would not be returning to campus in the spring, she wanted to give members of the TV community a chance to reflect on their pandemic experiences creatively.
“I hoped that by watching their individual contributions be literally bound together into a collective finished artifact, they might feel a sense of connection to each other,” says the adjunct assistant professor. Page-making kits were mailed out, and Pedersen demonstrated a range of creative mark-making techniques on a live Zoom workshop. More than 115 pages were returned by the end of April (they can be viewed online ). The resulting book, Belonging at TV, is now part of the College’s Special Collections. (Daniella Michelin '94 created the page shown above.)
Dance, dance, dance: Hosted by the Occidental Dance Team and in collaboration with TV's Latin dance team Azúcar and the Folk & Historical Dance Troupe, a virtual highlighted the work of TV’s dance clubs this past academic year. The showcase featured a variety of dance styles including jazz, contemporary, Reggaetón, Bachata fusion, and cultural dances from Israel, Bulgaria, and Romania.
