Winifred Haun & Dancers will continue its online artistic programming throughout the Summer of 2020. Programming will include events related to a favorite Company work, Bento, and online dance classes in Beginning and Intermediate/Advanced Modern.

There are three events in July and August that will explore *Bento*, a group work from 2011, that takes its inspiration and choreographic choices from the works of others (with their permission). Bento was designed around the concept of the box within a box, and it reveals the connections between and among distinctly different choreographers.

A *Wine with Wini* event will take a detailed look at the dance phrases that form the choreographic designs of Bento. It will be held on Friday, July 24 at 7:00pm on Zoom. This event is only 20 minutes and it's Pay-What-You-Can. Audience members must sign-up to receive the Zoom link.

A *new "Zoom" version of Bento* will be on released on Friday, July 31 at 7:00pm on Facebook Live, Instagram, and YouTube. Bento was originally created using the concepts of squares and boxes within boxes, making it a natural fit for a Zoom-like video recreation. This is a free event.

A video performance of Bento* will be streamed on YouTube, and available for 48 hours beginning Friday, August 7 at 7:00pm. This recorded performance took place in April of 2019 at Links Hall, during their 40th Anniversary Season. The streaming will include a brief introduction by Company artists. Audience members must register to receive the Streaming link. This event is 30 minutes, and it's Pay-What-You-Can.
