The Asian Art Museum exhibit Beyond Bollywood: 2000 Years of Dance in Art will invite audiences to experience the critical interplay between visual arts and dance in the Indian cultural sphere, from ancient rituals to the glamor of Bollywood. 

During this workshop, special guest and international Bharatanatyam performer Nivedita Gopinath Sarathy will guide teachers through the stories and underlying messages conveyed by classical Indian dance, as well as ways students can use movement as a form of expression. Some questions that will be explored include: What Hindu beliefs are being taught or reinforced  through dance? What gender roles are being promoted or upheld?
