Goals

To bring together women artists and activists of color with international collaborators to create dance works where every woman feels valued, cherished, and challenged;

To find the articulation of individual dreams and desires through movement;

To arrive at a sense of personal fulfillment and dignity through striving towards artistic excellence in movement, and in collaboration with some renowned artists;

To share the labor of creating a safe space where issues that drive apart communities of color can be discussed and worked through using primarily artistic means;

To create a network of support that validates the artistic practices and creativity of a group of women of color who have traditionally had difficulty in finding that support;

To unearth and share the histories of women of color from different communities in order to participate in each others' cultures and histories with respect;

To work collectively through the metaphors of movement towards a shared future where we can realize cooperation and alliances among communities of color;

To project dance as a powerful way to articulate and share ideas, thoughts, and histories, and mobilize social change.
