Donate to Danspace Project!
Artists are shifting the landscape around us and we need your help to be as responsive as possible and give them the resources they need. Please donate to Danspace Project before June 30th! https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/store/2742/alldonations
This year, we provided resources to over 70 artists ⬇️ through performances, rehearsals, residencies, conversations, and welcomed over 4,000 audience members to our performances.
Since 1994, we have commissioned nearly 600 dance works; published print catalogues, e-books, albums, and a free online Journal; and produced, presented, premiered, and revived the work of so many artists, at so many junctures in their creative journey.
We need you to keep all of us all moving into the future. We hope you will contribute now and celebrate with us in the coming year. ❤️

In 2021, we connected artists with audiences across the globe welcoming new and old friends to Danspace Project. With your help, we held space for 27 artists within the digital and in-person walls at Danspace Project. Some were artists whose creative lives at Danspace have spanned decades, others were new to us and perhaps to you as well. Dancers, choreographers, writers, and researchers generously shared their work, wisdom, and revolutionary perspectives on the current state of our field and the world around us.
🌿 As a thank you for your generosity, we’ll gift you a digital copy of writer Claudia La Rocco’s "Quartet" (Ugly Duckling Presse, 2020) with a donation of $120 or more OR with a recurring gift of $10 a month or more!
🌿 Give $250 or more, and we'll also include the Rebel Angels Cookbook, filled with personal recipes from Danspace Project Rebel Angels Charles Atlas, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Simone Forti, Ishmael Houston-Jones, Ralph Lemon, Eiko Otake, Yvonne Rainer, and Wendy Whelan just to name a few.

"It's all about collaboration. We can't do this alone. And there's no way to go from sort of having an idea about something, to a live experience that breathes on its own without all of the people involved breathing on their own, bringing meaning and connection and their feelings and sensibilities to the things that we make together."
- Bebe Miller, 2021 Rebel Angels Gala
