Fostering community in and around dance.
Crawl is a pop up event in which Agora Artists partners with local dance artists and organizations to create a curated guide of dance programming. We're excited to highlight Bombshell Dance Project’s “Flies”, kNOwBOX Dance Film Festival, and offer a dance class by Pittsburgh-based duo slowdanger! See a detailed schedule of the events below.

Crawl is an Agora Artists program in which we partner with local dance artists and organizations in creating a curated guide to a weekend of dance programming in Dallas.
Looking back at Crawl 2023
Crawl 2023 was facilitated in partnership with Renuka Rajagopalan and Elizabeth Van Vleck. The program was supported by the City of Dallas Office of Arts and Culture’s Culture of Value Microgrant, a subgrant of the National Endowment of the Arts.
Inspiration for Crawl…
In February 2020, Agora Artists worked with a group of local dancers to host Dallas Dance Weekend. The weekend consisted of classes taught by Agora Artists affiliates, a jam hosted by DFW Improv Jammers, discounted tickets to a TITAS/DANCE UNBOUND performance at the Winspear Opera House, and a forum hosted by Agora Artists and Suzi Jerry at Arts Mission Oak Cliff. The weekend was a beautiful example of the kind of work Agora Artists is focused on: facilitating community among local dance organizations, highlighting existing programming, holding space for artists of color, and offering opportunities to a range of dancers and audiences to engage in dance in various ways. Dallas Dance Weekend, along with other efforts to bring communities together around dance, led to Crawl.
