2024-25 Season Announcement

Mark your calendars; there is something exciting for everyone coming up this season! Last year we celebrated these relationships with special 30th anniversary programming. As we enter our fourth decade, the 24-25 season celebrates old friends, like Montreal based Tentacle Tribe and the Cultch – a throwback to our last presentation before the pandemic struck; and it marks the beginning of new associations as we support a world premiere from contemporary Kathak artist Gaurav Bhatti. Plus a host of residencies, studio showings, and other presentations – both familiar and fresh!
