Dear Dance Community Members and Supports,

What a year it’s been! With the closing of the Cowles Center and additional community changes, we continue to reflect and evolve. DanceMN has been exploring our role within the community and ways we can facilitate improvements and growth.

Foremost, we want to thank all of you who contributed to our survey, and participated in our hosted community conversations. Approximately 150 individuals answered the survey, and the 3 virtual gatherings were filled with lively conversations and many thought provoking questions. Listening to the community has helped shape our future plans.

In the coming year, our focus is to dive into our vision that “All are connected to dance in Minnesota” by expanding connections with communities beyond the Twin Cities metro, youth and emerging artists, and dance aesthetics outside of the Western canon. Dance in Minnesota is a dynamic tapestry, and we want the newsletter and website to reflect this vibrancy more fully. DanceMN needs funds to further our website offerings, showcase dance resources in new ways, expand our social media engagement, and build relationships with those identified above.

All these efforts require time and funding, and your contributions have never been more important. Please consider making a tax deductible contribution during the GiveMN campaign in November. These donations will help fund not only our weekly newsletter and website, but in implementing the resulting outcomes. We so appreciate your support of DanceMN, and are grateful for any amount contributed!
