*3-day dance festival located in Cleveland!* *november 22nd, 23rd & 24th*
Every November, *The Movement Project *hosts *Cleveland Dance Fest <https://www.themovementproject.org/about-the-festival>*, an annual 3-day festival featuring new works from local artists, the regional midwest, and beyond in our *Professional Concerts Series (4 concerts), Youth Showcase, Virtual Dance Film Gallery, and master classes for professional and pre-professional dancers.*
This year's festival will feature over 175 artists representing the diverse ecosystem of dance. The Movement Project is committed to providing a sustainable and equitable experience for artists, providing them with fair compensation, resource support, high quality production values, and above all an experience that values the diverse and inclusive gathering of artists to share their work to audiences in an accessible and affordable format.
“I love the warmth and the care and the respect that we’ve gotten from the staff and the audiences at CDF for both years we have performed and taught. And it really has given me the courage to spread my wings as a choreographer and trust in the gifts that I have and the message that I want to share with the greater Cleveland community. Without the support of the staff (The Movement Project) I don’t know that I ever would have accomplished those things.”
— Dr. Munirah Bomani, Caribe Conexion (CDF 2021 Emerging Works Concert Artist, CDF 2022 & 2023 Commissioned Artist)
