    Event description

    MODArts Dance Collective (MADC) presents Move to Change - a festival which uses dance as a form of social justice and arts activism through the lens of BIPOC choreographers and cinematographers. The goal of Move to Change is to create cultural and gender affirming spaces for artists of color: African, Latina/o/x, Asian, Arab, Native American (ALAANA); Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI); Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI); Black/African American, Caribbean, Indigenous, Middle East & North Africa (MENA); & South West Asia & North Africa (SWANA) to educate, empower, & illuminate issues that reflects their histories and cultures through their unique and rich movement aesthetics. This hybrid festival consists of live performance and dance films in two different programs over the two day festival. This year’s theme is the Swahili word 'Umoja' meaning Unity. The dance pieces/dance films will highlight the Kwanzaa meaning of Umoja: to strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, and/or the world in which we live in.
