SUPPORT NVA & Guests
Help Bring New Work to Life
NVA & Guests creates bold, highly physical dance-theatre that sparks conversation, builds community, and invites audiences to engage with today's most pressing social questions. As an independent dance company, every production is made possible through the generosity of individuals who believe in the power of the arts. Your support allows us to create new work, fairly compensate artists, invest in meaningful collaborations, and bring performances and educational programs to communities in New York and beyond.
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference.
Your support helps fund:
New dance-theatre productions
Fair pay for dancers, designers, and collaborators
Rehearsal and performance space
Touring and residency expenses
Costumes, lighting, projections, and production design
Music licensing and technical production
Documentation and marketing
Thank you for supporting independent contemporary dance and helping NVA & Guests continue to grow.
