DAIPANbutoh Collective is pleased to announce the Seattle International Butoh Festival 2017, a year of an international artist exchange with DAIPAN and Compañía Ruta de la Memoria (Chile) plus a special evening focusing on local and visiting Japanese artists.

DAIPAN continues to be the only group consistently bringing national and international butoh artists to Seattle, and producing an annual festival that features both guest artists and local performers. From its birth in Japan nearly 60 years ago, Butoh has proven itself a vital and innovative global genre. Join us in discovering these unique tricontinental voices in our 2017 festival, which opens the gate to the Hidden Histories of the Body.

About DAIPAN and our festival

In 2017, DAIPAN is planning its most ambitious festival bringing international dance artist Natalia Cuellar from Chile with her group Compañía Ruta de la Memoria to perform and present workshops. In exchange, Natalia has invited the DAIPAN Collective to perform a group work in Santiago in the FiButoh Festival Internacional de Butoh and to teach workshops. In addition, DAIPAN will tour individual solos in other Chilean cities. DAIPAN will also present Ken Mai, a Japanese butoh artist residing in Helsinki, Finland, to perform and conduct a workshop for the 2017 festival. April 7 & 8 will feature Compañía Ruta de la Memoria and works by DAIPAN, and April 9 will feature Ken Mai and DAIPAN’s own Kaoru Okumura.

This is an extraordinary opportunity to bring never seen before international artists to the northwest community, and the opportunity for DAIPAN members to travel on tour together for the first time. The 2017 festival, running March 31 through April 9, is partnering with Shoreline Community College Theater and Gallery. SCC will host the 2017 festival performances in the theater at the college, and present a showcase of butoh photos featuring well known photographer Bruce Clayton Tom and other photographers with performances by DAIPAN and friends in the college gallery. Themes for our festival are the body as politics, hidden histories revealed, and personal primordial journeys and journeys of acceptance.

Shoreline Early Alert for Spring 2017

April 4, 2017 by Leave a Comment

To all Faculty and Staff:

It’s great to see everyone back on campus, especially our students, as we get started with another quarter! As an ongoing support and service, we’d like to remind you about Shoreline Early Alert (SEA). SEA is designed to provide academic intervention to students encountering difficulty in the pursuit of their academic goals. We recognize that intervention is a process and may not produce immediate results. That is why it is our goal is to reach out to the student early in the quarter and connect them to the appropriate resources.

During Winter Quarter 2017 we received over 190 early alert referrals! Most of these students have been connected to resources, such as Success Coaching, International Student Services, Tutoring, etc., although a small number did not respond to our outreach efforts. Thank you for your partnership to provide this service, your referrals are extremely important to this intervention and support for our students!

We’d like to introduce you to two new SEA Team members: Carrie Bayless serving in the role of Student Success Coach-Completion and Noah Lagasse serving as administrative support for SEA.

MAKE A REFERRAL!

Use the SEA Referral Form to make a referral. A SEA Team member will respond within 24 hours by reaching out to both you and the student. We will continue provide outreach to the student in order to connect with them.

Examples of SEA referrals include:
• Low test or quiz scores
• Difficulties with attendance, tardiness, or pacing with class
• Excessive missing assignments
• Lack of participation or communication
• Connecting to support and resources
• External concerns (e.g. family issues, financial matters)

Please view the flyer below and visit our site to learn more about SEA or to view our Referral Form.

We look forward to continuing to work with you and to support our students!

Thanks,
SEA Team
Nicki Sunwall, Carrie Bayless, Lianne Almughirah, Jennifer Coogan, Noah Lagasse
