Organizations Filed Purposes: THE MISSION OF THE DANCE EXCHANGE IS TO CREATE DANCES THAT ARISE FROM ASKING: WHO GETS TO DANCE? WHERE IS THE DANCE HAPPENING? WHAT IS IT ABOUT? WHY DOES IT MATTER? DANCE EXCHANGE IS AN INTERGENERATIONAL COMPANY OF ARTISTS THAT CREATES DANCE AND ENGAGES PEOPLE IN MAKING ART. WE SERVE AS AN INCUBATOR FOR CREATIVE RESEARCH, BRINGING IDEAS TO ACTION THROUGH COLLABORATIONS THAT RANGE FROM EXPERTS IN THE FIELD OF DANCE TO UNEXPECTED MOVERS AND MAKERS. THROUGH THESE EXCHANGES WE STRETCH THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN THE STUDIO, STAGE, AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTS TO MAKE DANCES THAT ARE ROOTED IN THE PARTICULARITY OF PEOPLE AND PLACE. WE RECOGNIZE THE BODY AND MOVEMENT AS AN ESSENTIAL RESOURCE TO UNDERSTAND AND INVESTIGATE ACROSS DISCIPLINES. THROUGH LOCAL, NATIONAL, INTERNATIONAL, AND ONLINE PROJECTS WE GATHER AND CREATE COMMUNITY TO CONTRIBUTE TO A HEALTHY AND MORE SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT.

CREATION OF NEW WORK THROUGH PUBLIC DANCE PERFORMANCES, RESIDENCY PROGRAMS, WORKSHOPS, AND INSTITUTES OFFERED AND PRESENTED AT VARIOUS SITES LOCALLY AND AROUND THE WORLD. THEMES OF PERFORMANCES AND INTERGENERATIONAL COMMUNITY-BASED PROJECTS INCLUDE RELATIONSHIP TO ENVIRONMENT, CREATIVE AGING, AND ISSUES OF SOCIAL JUSTICE, INVITING MULTIPLE VOICES TO CONNECT AND CREATE AROUND A SHARED HISTORY, PLACE OR PASSION.

SHARING ART-MAKING TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS WITH LOCAL, NATIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS AND CHOREOGRAPHERS THROUGH WEEKLY CLASSES, PUBLIC EVENTS, INTERACTIVE EXPERIENCES, AND INSTITUTES. USING PRACTICES FROM THE DANCE EXCHANGE TOOLBOX, LIZ LERMAN'S CRITICAL RESPONSE PROCESS AND CASSIE MEADOR'S MOVING FIELD GUIDES, DANCE EXCHANGE ENGAGES PARTICIPANTS OF ALL AGES IN DISCUSSIONS ABOUT CREATIVE RESEARCH THAT BRIDGES ARTISTS, SCIENTISTS, COMMUNITY MEMBERS, HISTORIANS AND TEACHERS.
