Dance Place fundamentally focuses on creating a sense of home, of connection and belonging, for our community. This season’s artists are pioneers of movement expression, whose work opens portals to worlds that reveal the multiplicity of the human experience.

In acknowledgment of all we have faced as a country, this season’s curatorial vision is “Between Living & Dreaming.”

Moving through these experiences requires honoring the realities of living today in the present, while supporting us imagining our own possibility. Each artist, performance, residency, community event, and educational engagement reminds us that we have many more dreams to dream.

Dreaming is about demanding the world we would like to live in, a world with rigorous compassion, generative conflict, coalition building and the continued search for life’s meaning. Together we embrace Maya Angelou’s declaration that “We must confess that we are the possible.”

As we navigate the space “Between Living & Dreaming,” we create a world where dreams are not just aspirations but realities in the making. Together, we will explore, challenge, and celebrate the boundless possibilities of our collective imagination. Home is the experience of connection and belonging, and through our shared journey we will build a community where everyone feels they belong.
