This year’s festival was truly one to remember. Wonderful installations from Dana Michel and Tracy Maurice, as well as Sari Nordman’s Tower. Andrew Tay presented an ingenious live-stream performance. It was inspiring and warming to see artists performing live again, including Seattle’s Degenerate Art Ensemble! We were supported in so many ways — by our energized and celebratory audiences, our funders, the Leadership Circle, Friends of NDA, Kickstarter pledges and through volunteers and in-kind donations.

“I am honored to have performed at the Performance Mix 37…PMF plays a very inspiring, influential, and unique role in redefining the role of theater and performance art in society. I hope we continue to think about how this festival means so much not only for dance fans/ students, but for art lovers and the general public.”
