Dance Theatre Etcetera

The 18th Annual Red Hook Fest

What a wonderful weekend.  Thank you to all of the professional artists, the dedicated young performers from all corners of Brooklyn, the many volunteers, and most of all to our community, for coming out and supporting the Red Hook Fest.

Incredible music, dance, spoken word and theater- plus tons of fun activities (kayak rides, face-painting, art projects, and more)- filled up a beautiful Friday evening and an exciting, jam-packed day on Saturday.  We're so lucky to call Red Hook home.  Visit www.redhookfest.com for details, or call (718) 643-6790.

Premised on the belief that the arts are an effective vehicle for social transformation, Dance Theatre Etcetera unites artists and community members as co-creators in dynamic cultural activities. Through site-specific performances, festivals, parades, and performing arts and media education programs, Dance Theatre Etcetera stimulates the social imagination through acts of informed expression, creating a more just and joyful world.

"Arts in Action" in-school programs are wrapping up @ East Brooklyn, South Brooklyn, the Brooklyn H.S. for Leadership, and Manhattan Bridges H.S. Congratulations to all the graduates!
