You are invited to the 36th Annual Bessies Ceremony!
You are cordially invited to the 36th Annual Bessies Ceremony! The event will be streamed virtually on Monday, December 14, at 7:30pm ET. Produced in partnership with Dance/NYC, the NY Dance and Performance Awards, The Bessies, have saluted outstanding and groundbreaking creative work by independent dance artists in NYC for 36 years.
This year, The Bessies Ceremony will be a place for the dance and performance community to come together in solidarity, support, and celebration during these times of continuing challenge. The virtual ceremony and program will feature video of the nominated artists’ works, a special tribute to the often unsung but essential members of the community who are central to bringing live and online dance and performance to audiences in New York City, and an annual 'In Memoriam' honoring lives lost in the past year.
