Call for all choreographers

                               

Founded in 2008 by Dancer and Choreographer Ursula Verduzco.

We are proud to have been in the forefront by creating the first annual Latin Choreographers Festival in NY dedicated to empower our community.

The Latin Choreographers Festival has the mission to present and showcase in NYC the work of talented and innovative Latin choreographers through an environment where the general public, the International Dance Community and the Latin Community can feel welcomed and empowered. Giving also the opportunity to one non-Latin choreographer or Company per year to be presented as a guest in our Festival.

 

Through concert dance and the styles of Contemporary Ballet, Modern Dance and Contemporary Dance, cho­reographers will be able to show their work to an audience that will benefit from the experience of seeing dif­ferent kinds of work and points of view from artists of various Latin backgrounds.

 

This up-and-coming dance festival is in its fourth year, proudly presenting the work of established, rising and new talented choreographers form NYC and abroad. Participants have included choreographers from: Mexico, Colombia, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Chile, Spain, among others.
