IABD 2025: The Bridges We Build: From Revolution to Legacy
35th Annual Conference & Festival
We are the bridge! From our techniques to our teachings; from our ballets to our texts; from our ancestors to our students, Black dance has upheld Black people, Black history and Black communities.
The 35th Annual International Conference and Festival of Blacks in Dance invites the dance sector to celebrate and examine the tenacity of Black dance and Black art. While magnifying our accomplishments, this conference and festival will also gather our community to plan how we continue to be culture bearers and luminaries in the field.
