Dance industry and general audiences alike are invited to celebrate feminist advancements and art, critically examine bias, and envision a future of gender equality at the International Womens Day Dance Festival (IWDDF) in Los Angeles. From March 4 through 8, the festival will host free dance classes for pre-professional and professional dancers; a free, public, all-level, body, age, and ability movement workshop; a downtown LA live performance and a virtual showcase highlighting local and international dance that embodies feminist values; as well as industry-led panels exploring topics related to gender identity, leadership, and community. Adapting the official theme set by the International Womens Day campaign (www.internationalwomensday.com), festival workshops and panel discussions will challenge audiences and participants to examine bias and inclusivity in line with this years theme, Break the Bias. Featuring dance works and instruction from over 30 female-identifying choreographers, IWDDF is a rare national opportunity to experience a wealth of thought and creativity coming from women in dance.The International Womens Day Dance Festival is made possible in part by the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, the City of West Hollywood, the Los Angeles County Art Commission, and the California Arts Council.
