NOLA DANCE PROJECT

THE NOLA DANCE PROJECT is a pre-professional youth dance company that provides an opportunity and a safe space for its performers and choreographers to develop their personal creative processes.

The youth dance company was founded in Fall 2017, by  Artistic Director, Diana Madrigal Barnitz. It was her intention to give dancers in the New Orleans community a chance to share their passion for dance through movement, performances, and collaborations with not only other dancers but artists in other fields of creative arts . Currently, NOLA Dance Project consists of 21 dancers between the ages of 7-18 years old.

Dance is by nature ephemeral, with each moment unfolding like a story.  Our mission is to INSPIRE CREATIVITY  by providing dancers, instructors, choreographers, etc with a place to work together and create works of art. We BEGIN CONVERSATIONS with our audiences by performing around the community and allowing the performer and spectator to meet and talk. We are committed to EDUCATING AND ENHANCING the local dance community by hosting world-renowned teachers, choreographers, and dancers to conduct master classes, lectures, and demonstrations that are open to the community. 

As we embark on a new season, NOLA DANCE PROJECT invites you to consider making a donation so that we can continue to provide unique opportunities to dancers, choreographers, and artists.
