FUTURE DANCE FESTIVAL 2022 Announces Call for Submissions Image

92Y has announced a call for submissions for the 2022Future Dance Festival. Created by Harkness Dance Center director Taryn Kaschock Russell, the Future Dance Festival is a choreographic competition aiming to give new creators an opportunity to showcase their work. Conceived as a virtual showcase when 92Y's building was closed due to the pandemic - with the goal of building a bridge between the next generation of creators and the current generation of directors and industry leaders - 2022's festival will be both virtual and in person on the stage of Kaufmann Concert Hall as part of the Harkness Dance Center's 2021-22 Mainstage Series.
