For four consecutive days in September 2008, Dance New Amsterdam hosted close to sold-out performances for the 2008 ADG Performance Festival, which presented a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to experience contemporary dance through the visions of 44 choreographers from across the country. The smorgasbord was a perfect forum to sample the works of less-known artists and distinguished choreographers, and audience members hopefully followed-up with their favorites for future performances.

The ADG wishes to acknowledge the recent generous financial support of Jody & John Arnhold as well as the Harkness Foundation! All donations are so appreciated, and are used to continue the work of the ADG!
