The Dance Exchange

Over their forty-two year history, Dance Exchange has remained committed to breaking boundaries between stage and audience, theater and community, movement and language, tradition and the unexplored. They are known for innovative performance projects and creative practices that engage communities and partners across wide ranging disciplines, and for catalyzing collaborations across generations and communities that ignite inquiry and inspire change.

In this animated keynote — a public event that combines performance excerpts, multimedia projections, and participatory engagements— Associate Artistic Director Matthew Cumbie, Associate Artist Bimbola Akinbola, and other Dance Exchange artists will speak to the Presence of the Past in the ways that Dance Exchange supports, connects and grows a network of socially-engaged artists. We hope you can join us!
