Dance Art Foundation is an independent national charity inspiring recognition of the cultural significance of dance, and advancing public and individual engagement, understanding and appreciation of dance as a contemporary art form.

Dance Art Foundation celebrates and focuses attention on the artistic excellence, diverse practices and entrepreneurial spirit of independent dance artists. It works with a dynamic network of leading artists to create adventurous dance that questions the limits and definitions of the art form, and its role in wider cultural life. It aspires to a dance ecology where artists, art form, audiences and communities engage in critical reflection, fearless inquiry and informed exchange. Read more
