In this week of giving thanks, we are grateful to all the artists, crew and volunteers who came together and worked selflessly to bring Rasik’s vision to life, with no promise of a fixed compensation or monetary returns. With the support and generosity of everyone who purchased a ticket and attended the concerts and also Mass Cultural Council, we were able to compensate all artists and vendors and pull off a successful season that had started with no resources and a blank slate. But we would like to do a better job of it, and continue to create more opportunities to witness high quality live dance in the Greater Boston area.
