In its fourth decade as a cultural anchor for dancers at all stages of the creative process, Dance Place uses dance to empower artists who have been historically and systemically excluded from the field. Eight yearly residencies offer artists space, connections, and resources, with an emphasis on supporting Indigenous and local artists, nationally renowned choreographers, and artists with a disability. Every year, thousands of audience members connect with culturally and stylistically diverse choreography at performances and two annual festivals; and every month, hundreds of youth and adults engage in classes at Dance Place. Off-campus, young people participate in master classes at schools and community centers across the city, engage in after-school and summer creative arts programs, and take field trips to watch performances. Dance Place builds a safe and supportive community through joyous movement.
