Portland Community College will host a special opportunity for its intermediate-level dance students when a member of the Paul Taylor Dance Company, a New York-based dance company, will visit the college and teach a "master class" on Monday, Oct. 6 from 5:45 to 7:30 p.m. The workshop will be held on the Sylvania Campus, 12000 S.W. 49th, in the HT Building dance studio, room 101. Dance enthusiasts are welcome to come and observe during this special presentation.

Doors will open at 5:15 for the workshop.

The Paul Taylor Dance Company is an internationally renowned modern dance troupe who will perform in Portland at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall on the following evening, Oct. 7, where they will premier a new work, "Piazzolla Caldera," from the music of Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla.

"This is an exceptional opportunity for our students," said Diana LoVerso, PCC dance instructor. "We are very, very pleased. We know it will be a great learning experience to have someone of this caliber work with our dance students."
