We’re getting close to E|MERGE 2013 and the countdown begins with this year’s Indiegogo Campaign.
Half of all the funds raised will go directly back to this year’s AIRs in the form of need-based scholarships. The other half will contribute to the infrastructure of E|MERGE and the initiation of an E|MERGE fund to keep this program kickin’ for years to come.

We’re reaching the end of my campaign – it’s your last chance to support my work! A huge thanks to 52 amazing donors who have supported my newest project “Suspending and Other Tricks”. The donations I’ve received so far have helped me reach 73% of my goal!
If I do not reach my goal, the donations will be returned to the donors and I will not receive funds! Please consider supporting my new work by making a donation!

“Suspending and Other Tricks: Preliminary Research and Development” is the first stage of my next exploration as I continue to work at redefining choreography for solo dance, and more audaciously, at redefining who dancers are and can be. Themes that I will explore include: what makes good art; the dramatic versus the mundane (or, finding true drama within the mundane); mortality; sexual identity; and the limitations of age. I’m sharing this project at an early stage of its development because I hope you might be interested in supporting the work.
There’s only $964 left to go before November 25th!
This amount will cover fundamental costs including choreographer’s creation time, assistant video editor, the development of set-design and materials, and fabric for costume creation. If you can support this project with a donation, in any capacity, together we can make this idea a reality! Sharing the project with others and sending me your thoughts are also very valuable ways to show your support.
Make a donation or learn more here!
Gratefully, Karen Bernard

“This current global situation is immensely sad and challenging, including the necessary cancellations/ postponements/ restructuring of opportunities, but we are so grateful for how you and the Performance Mix #34: Remotely Yours team has honored all of the artists involved – artistically, financially, and emotionally. In these uncertain, confusing times, we feel taken care of & clearly communicated with. Thank you.”
