nurturing art by nurturing artists
”Dancers, perhaps more than any other type of artist, have the ability to communicate the deepest and most complex emotions through movement alone. They can tell stories without words, using their bodies to express everything from pain and heartbreak, to love and joy. Through their performances, they help us to connect with our own bodies and to feel a sense of kinship with others.
Dancers help us to see the world with fresh eyes, to connect with our emotions, and to find a sense of purpose and belonging in the world. They remind us of the beauty that surrounds us, the power of human connection, and the importance of creativity in our lives”.

BECOME A REAL RENTER!
Real Rent calls on people who live and work in Seattle to make rent payments to the Duwamish Tribe.
Though the city named for the Duwamish leader Chief Seattle thrives, the Tribe has yet to be justly compensated for their land, resources, and livelihood.
You can do something today to stand in solidarity with First Peoples of this land by paying Real Rent.
All funds go directly to Duwamish Tribal Services (DTS) to support the cultural, economic and political survival of the Duwamish Tribe. Visit the website to learn more about this grassroots movement to support Duwamish sovereignty
