NDA deeply thanks you for coming out to support the 30+ performance artists that presented a wide range of works, pushing the boundaries of genre and discipline.

“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.”
