Project

Project Mission Statement
Flux Dance Project aims to bring a group of 10 artists from diverse professional backgrounds, including choreographers, composers, costume designers, graphic artists, videographers, and photographers, together for the purpose of generating new works based on singular concept: Common Threads. The creative venture will take place at Broadview Ranch in Lexington, VA over a period of two weeks from July 7-11. There Flux Dance Company will construct a collaborative environment where the project members can meet and endeavor to find common ground through the creative process. Broadview Ranch will provide them each with ample lodging, transportation, creative spaces and any necessary resources to complete their tasks.
