BEING AN AGENT OF CHANGE
Notes in Motion/Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre is rooted in our mission of offering access, nurturing community, and promoting individual expression and freedom. Our dance education programs in the NYC schools offer students tools to express themselves, engage with their peers, and gain a more well rounded school experience. Through sharing and providing access to this inclusive learning model, we are engaged in the critical work of breaking down barriers of systematic racism and oppression. We actively recruit diverse teaching artists, dancers, staff, and board to reflect, empower, and celebrate the diverse populations we serve. We are steadfast in our commitment to equity and change and driven to show up with vulnerability in an open dialogue with our schools, audiences, patrons, volunteers, and supporters. It is a privilege to share the joy of dance, offering students and audiences in-roads to discover inspiration, meaning, and joy. As we celebrate our 20th anniversary, I have gratitude for our diverse community and the lessons learned. I am also humbled by the work that lays ahead. We enter our third decade of dance making, sharing, and educating with a dedication to foster equality, access, and opportunity to all. —Amanda Selwyn, Artistic/Executive Director
Presented by the CUNY Dance Initiative, Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre presented our 20th Anniversary Performance Season at Baruch Performing Arts Center just days before the city shut down due to COVID-19 March 5-7, 2020. The premiere, Hindsight, was a look back at 20 years of work and the wisdom gained along the way. It is vital that arts and culture endures on the other side of this crisis and we are committed to our community of artists and supporters, to our beautiful city, and to the students we serve throughout NYC.
