<h2>Overview</h2><h3>Held in support by a Voxel Artist Residency and the Maryland State Arts Council as part of the Margolis Method 40th Anniversary</h3>Taught by Margolis Method Center Lead Faculty Jarod Hanson as part of their residency at the Voxel, this class series kicks off with a weekend intensive in March and continues through May. Classes are free and open to adult artists of all levels. The work will be cumulative; it's highly recommended to attend as many sessions as possible--a goal of this series is to establish a working cohort of artists. No prior experience necessary. Margolis Method merges vocal and physical expression and brings together the skill sets of the actor, director, and playwright. The workshop series will de-mystify the craft of the theatre artist and provide tools, exercises, and creative structures to hone your storytelling and artistry. Explore an embodied approach to creation that offers practicable exercises to hone your craft as a storyteller. This series will introduce solo and ensemble structures as well as tools for both devised and pre-scripted work. Unleash your creativity in a dynamic, challenging yet supportive environment that will leave you inspired, energized, and empowered.
