Presenting artists are Ariel Rivka Dance, BodyStories: Teresa Fellion Dance, Claire Porter / PORTABLES, CoreDance Contemporary, Jodie Randolph Dance, and REDi Dance Company.

Ariel Rivka Dance presents Rust and Unorthodox

Rust is about the beauty of aging- the embarrassment, humor, and ultimate acceptance of physical, emotional, and internal changes.

Unorthodox, inspired by the drive and tradition of Klezmer music, juxtaposes raw realness with the polite version of ourselves we portray to the world.

Ariel Rivka Dance (ARD) is an all-female company based in Jersey City, NJ, led by Ariel Grossman. ARD's mission is to champion female creatives through original choreography, commissioned music, and curated family and educational programming. Through movement, ARD creates a community of vulnerability and acceptance. ARD has been presented nationally at NJPAC, NYLA, BAM Fisher, and collaborations or commissions from Rioult, Taylor 2, Heidi Latsky, Carolyn Dorfman Dance Company, Ballet Vero Beach, DanceLabNY, Konverjdans, and more.
