MODArts Dance Collective presents Collective Thread

Collective Thread is to provide a voice and a platform for artistic self-impression to those women identifying artists of underrepresented ethnic groups within the medium of dance. ***PLEASE NOTE: MADC uses the term “women” to encompass all those that self-identify as women including cisgender and transgender femmes.*** The goal of Collective Thread is to instill artists with the necessary tools to take on leadership roles, in an effort to increase diversity, inclusion, and gender equality in the dance field.

The eleven artists who will share their work in the live evening concert are Nawal Assougdam | Chicago, IL; Victoria Awkward | New York City, NY; Ally Bernadette | New York City, NY; Supraja Chittari | North Brunswick, NJ; Audrey Hubbard Madison/MoJazz Dance | Brooklyn, NY; Sama Bajonero Moreno | Brooklyn, NY; Kaleigh Ogunniyi | Stony Point, NY; Wendy Ann Powell | Brooklyn, NY; Nia Sadler | Brooklyn, NY; Madhuvanthi Sundararajan | Germantown, Maryland; and Leah Tubbs/MODArts Dance Collective (MADC) | New York City, NY.

MADC’s Collective Thread Dance Festival is made possible in part with funding from the West Harlem Development Corporation (WHDC) Community Benefits Grant; New York State Council on the Arts; and by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
