Mission Statement
Joel Hall Dancers & Center awakens the dancer in everyone’s soul. By highlighting and spotlighting the Black and Brown and LGBTQIA+ experience, we provide comprehensive dance education and artistic expression. We believe dance is a powerful tool to educate and inspire, offering not only instruction in techniques but also deep insights into the history and cultural significance of dance. Our commitment to making dance accessible and affordable helps break down barriers and challenges oppressive systems. By championing Urban Jazz, we engage both performers and audiences to enhance our collective culture and educate future generations, cultivating a more inclusive and equitable world for all.
Description
JHDC builds upon its longstanding tenets of diversity and accessibility to provide movers of all backgrounds the same diligent commitment to artistry, curiosity, self-expression, and growth. JHDC rejects the idea that high-quality artistic programming should be a privilege; at JHDC, this level of programming is a right. Moreover, this programming is a tool for community building, for fostering creativity, and for having difficult but necessary conversations about how to productively dismantle issues like racism, sexism, transphobia, and homophobia.
