WHITE WAVE Dance is proud to celebrate our 20^th Anniversary season of the DUMBO Dance Festival VIRTUALLY!

WHITE WAVE scours the globe in search of today's most innovative dancemakers, both emerging and established, and brings them VIRTUALLY together for one extended weekend, all the while paying extra attention to the new, emerging, and experimental. Dance lovers will experience a veritable cornucopia of the best of contemporary dance. 2021 VDDF attracts the very best by providing artists access to our global audiences to experience, first-hand, the incomparable vitality of the NY & around-the-world Dance scene.

2021 VDDF features 60 contemporary dance troupes combining over 350 artists who will present solo, chamber, and full-scale works. Dancers from across the United States, and internationally, from Mexico, Hungary, China, and Korea will join the New York’s active dance community to offer the full range of new directions in Dance in the 21st century.

 

Formed in 1988, WHITE WAVE Young Soon Kim Dance Company (WHITE WAVE) strives to inspire audiences through multi-dimensional dance productions reflecting themes and philosophies both modern and timeless. Our mission is to be a potent stimulus for change and expansion of the dance/arts world through the production of dance concerts, classes, residencies, and education. Artistic Director Young Soon Kim’s vision is expansive, challenging the threshold of dance, music, theater, and visual art, surging forward to create new possibilities. Ms. Kim creates works of vision and movement language in reverence and awe of novelty that challenge and broaden the boundaries of dance. We provide both emerging and established choreographers/companies with a NYC venue where they can congregate, create, rehearse, and present new dance works through our festivals. www.whitewavedance.org/

The mission of WHITE WAVE’s festival projects is to present and promote up-and-coming choreographers, and our festivals serve as an important stepping stone for emerging dancemakers to launch their careers. Your generous support enables us to continue this important work. We sincerely thank you from the depths of our heart. We would love you to join us for WHITE WAVE’s Opening Night GALA Celebration on June 10th following the 7PM show, and to welcome you to any of our performances during the DUMBO DANCE FESTIVAL. You will experience first-hand all you have made possible for these young artists. Please contact us at wwyskdc@gmail.com or (718) 855-8822, for more information.
