The cat’s out of the bag! We’re having a party in Brooklyn that is sure to be a good time. For those of you New Yorkers who have been following along from afar, now’s your chance to get a piece of the action.

Join us for an evening of music and merriment, and delicious Wellfleet Oysters to support Fleet Moves 2013. This year we return to Wellfleet with a team of 20 artists from New York and beyond to create another year of innovative, site-specific dance programming.

LIVE MUSIC by Harry Belafonte Live at Carnegie Hall 1959 (Mickey Sanchez, Steve Marion, Christian Peslak, Adam Pumilia, and Jeremy Gustin of Delicate Steve)
DANCES by The Movement Party
PROVISIONS by Mac’s Seafood, Chavela’s…and more!

Not able to attend? You can still make a donation by visiting Fractured Atlas, our fiscal sponsor. 

Thanks to everyone who joined us for our Wellfleet fundraiser! We had a blast while raising awareness and funds for this summer’s programming. If you couldn’t make it, you can still contribute here. Stay tuned for an upcoming event in New York…

The countdown to Fleet Moves 2013 has begun. Our team of collaborating artists is growing and will soon head to the Wellfleet to create a brand new lineup of site-specific performances, workshops, classes, sensory walks, and other events (so stay tuned…)

As a community-driven festival, we depend on your support to help our programming come to life. We are currently seeking funding in order to cover basic festival needs such as artist transportation and housing, rehearsal and performance space rental, video and photo documentation, as well as production and programmatic support. We have set a fundraising goal of $10,000 by May 1st, which will support new collaborations, provide innovative and high-quality public dance programming in Wellfleet, and offer much of this free of charge.

Will you help us build momentum by donating?

The evening of moving and grooving will include intimate dance performances, a screening of highlights from Fleet Moves Dance Festival 2012, raffle prizes, and a community dance party DJed by Wellfleet’s very own Paula Erickson. All ages welcome. Small hors d’oeuvres will be served and drinks will be available for purchase.

In this class, we will work to take ourselves apart and put ourselves back together working with breath, experiential anatomy, and imagery. Together we will increase our options for moving independently and collectively—emerging with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness that extends beyond the studio and into the practice of daily life. This class will be fun, a little silly, and is suitable for dancers of all levels of experience. Join us.

Lead by Zena Bibler—co-director, The Movement Party // Fleet Moves Dance Festival

We are pleased to announce a continued opportunity to move! Each Sunday, Becky Burrill will be leading Fleet Movement Explorations, an experimental dance class at Wellfleet Preservation Hall.

Fleet Movement Explorations is an experimental dance class in which we explore developmental movement patterns while sensing ourselves in space, weight, time, and the three dimensions. This is extended to exploring the articulation of movement initiations and refinement of body alignments. We play with evoking movementthough qualities of feeling, shape, force, idea, word and more. From this basis, we work out interactive improvisational skits. The class is basically informal, challenging, and fun, and a good movement workout. It plays spontaneously with forces, shapes, images, and ideas rather than specific dance technique. At times we will have guest teachers. All are welcome.

Lead by Becky Burrill—dancer, educator, visual artist.
