Urban Bush Women (UBW) galvanizes artists, activists, audiences and communities through performances, artist development, education and community engagement. With the ground-breaking performance ensemble at its core, and ongoing programs including the Summer Leadership Institute (SLI), BOLD (Builders, Organizers & Leaders through Dance) and the Choreographic Center Initiative, UBW affects the overall ecology of the arts by promoting artistic legacies; projecting the voices of the under-heard and people of color; bringing attention to and addressing issues of equity in the dance field and throughout the United States; and by providing platforms and serving as a conduit for culturally and socially relevant experimental art makers.
CHOREOGRAPHIC CENTER INITIATIVE 2.0
Choreographic Center Initiative Producing Program (CCI 2.0) is a pilot program designed to cultivate the next generation of women+ of color producers. We offer collaborative learning experiences, hands-on opportunities, mentorship, and a bi-weekly stipend; while at the same time continuing to support women+ of color movement makers who have participated in the CCI in the past.
