ABOUT US

The Sokolow Dance Foundation, established
in 2003 is the only institution dedicated
exclusively to the continuation of the
extraordinary legacy of Anna Sokolow.
Sokolow was one of the most influential,
innovative and inspiring choreographers
of all time. Her interest in the society in
which she lived is evident in her choreographic
themes. The dramatic and social content creates
an impact in her work that resonates with audiences
throughout the world.

Sokolow's unique approach to choreography is the core of
her legacy. It is through PRESERVATION, EDUCATION and
PRESENTATION that the Sokolow Dance Foundation aims
to perpetuate this legacy for future generations.

 

 

PRESERVATION

The Sokolow Dance Foundation continually strives to develop its archive by researching
and reclaiming repertory from both the public and private sectors. The archive is open to the public for
viewing and/or research by appointment only at the Sokolow Dance Foundation facility.

 

EDUCATION

The Sokolow Dance Foundation's commitment to sharing the creativity and integrity
of Anna Sokolow's choreography is the driving force behind the development
of three unique educational programs plus standard residencies and master classes.

 

PRESENTATION

SOKOLOW NOW!, the only performing archival dance company of its kind, keeps Anna Sokolow's
extraordinary legacy and vision alive by presenting stunning contemporary
theatrical stagings of her original choreography.

The Sokolow Dance Foundation owns and administers the complete catalogue of
Sokolow's choreography which is available for reconstruction to
professional companies, youth/children's ensembles and university/college dance companies.
