DANCE FIELD SURVEY
In the meantime, Dance/NYC will redirect its efforts to serving and advocating on behalf of the field and supporting dance makers, cultural workers, and organizations as they navigate the impacts of the virus. As you may have seen yesterday, Dance/NYC released Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information and Resources for the NYC Dance Community which includes a timely and necessary survey to the field to help us understand the impact that the coronavirus is having on you and your work. We encourage you to participate and share it widely. We value your input and will use it to create public awareness and guide policy, resources, and program development for dance makers, cultural workers, and organizations based in the metropolitan New York City area.

Cuomo and the New York State Legislature, and from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.
