Mission: Eryc taylor dance, inc.

every year, eryc taylor dance gives out three grants to young, aspiring nyc-based choreographers. Eryc works with each of them and guides them through the process of creating a new piece. A works-in-progress showing is hosted by etd for the grant recipients after three months.
during the new york city fall season, etd dance holds performances annually, each time at a different venue. About 400-600 people total attend over the course of four nights of performances. This increases public awareness of dance, providing further insight into the practice for both seasoned dance enthusiasts and audience members who are not accustomed to viewing this art form.
