FLOWER premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2023 and was screened at major film festivals across the United States, as well as at the White House. It was nominated for an NAACP Image Award. Copeland will conclude the afternoon in intimate interview on how to explore how ballet can grow and evolve to meet this moment.
