The 37th annual Performance Mix Festival brings together 30 experimental dance and film artists with deeply personal and expansive approaches to art-making. 

Produced by New Dance Alliance Founder and Executive Director Karen Bernard, Performance Mix is the longest-running woman-led experimental dance festival in New York City. It has been described as a “performance festival whose work feels necessary, not only for an audience but also for the development of the presenting artists” (Noah Witke Mele, Eye on Dance).

The 2023 festival is curated by Karen Bernard and artist panel Mawu Ama Ma’at Gora, Bob Eisen, Blaze Ferrer, Glenn Potter-Takata, Hortense Gerardo, and x. In addition, films were selected in collaboration with Cinédanse (Québec).

Performances will take place Thursday, June 8 through Sunday, June 11, at Abrons Arts Center, 446 Grand Street, in the Experimental Theater. Performance times vary. The full lineup is here: www.newdancealliance.org
