Urban Stomp: Dreams & Defiance on the Dance Floor

A first-of-its-kind exhibition that explores over 200 years of social dance in the city, from the ballrooms and bars of the 19th century to the parks, living rooms, and clubs of today. The exhibition illuminates how New York’s dance cultures and their related dance floors create spaces of collective celebration and social possibilities that have an impact everywhere. 

Join a group of dancers to check it out before ETB on Friday, August 15 at 1pm.
