Introducing: The Dance. Workforce. Resilience. Advisory Group! 🌟
The DWR Advisory Group is a diverse team of independent arts workers, advocates, organizers, academics, and leaders from across the field who have played a crucial role in informing Dance. Workforce. Resilience. Initiative activities this year. This cohort has provided critical feedback for the development of Dance/NYC’s upcoming State of NYC Dance: Findings from the Dance Industry Census report, and—alongside the DWR Network—continues to advocate for the economic needs of dance workers by cultivating a dance workforce movement.
