Just two more days to give for 2017!

Just two more days to give for 2017!

This year, we face changes across the nation that are having impact around the world. In a small loft in Tribeca, we are considering why we do what we do and why it matters.

Here are some of the reasons we have come up with:

1. All voices need to be heard—the alternative and the new, those pushing boundaries and defining fresh genres and those who have made a difference historically.
2. Art allows us to see things in new contexts.
3. Experimentation and collaboration support greater understanding.
4. A single voice can provide inspiration for others.

As you embark on your end-of-year giving, please consider a gift to New Dance Alliance.
