I’m beyond excited to share a new work at the Chocolate Factory Theater,—my first-ever evening-length commission. April 23–25: Please save the date! ⏳
This dance is created in close collaboration with Cayleen Del Rosario, Matt Evans, Amelia Heintzelman, Owen Prum, evan ray suzuki, and others. I can’t overstate how lucky I feel to make work alongside such singular, insanely talented artists.
As I step into this next phase, I’m also asking for support. I’m aiming to raise $10,000 to produce the work: studio time, collaborator fees, and the shared labor that sustains this project as well as my lifelong project of making dance.
If you’re able, every contribution, at any level, is genuinely meaningful. Tax-deductible one-time or recurring donations can be made at the link in my bio.
Thank you for being part of my community and for believing in me and in this work. See you in the new year.
With love and care!
Ayano
