“Every dance class, I feel the tether of Parkinson’s loosen.”

“Every dance class, I feel the tether of Parkinson’s loosen. You beckon us to stretch beyond the stiffness of mind and body that inhabits us, binds us. You think we can dance, and so we dance, much to our surprise. Our fellow dancers exude a kind of joy that spreads to us all. PD falls away.” – Carol Jenkins, […]

transparency: a note from Artistic Director Sarah Leversee

“Art as Action is a scrappy little nonprofit that’s punching way above its weight class.”   This is one of my all-time favorite quotes describing Art as Action (thank you John Dean).
