A visual response to dance culture.
The group exhibition Dance Party! captures the spirit and visual culture surrounding dance as a social activity.

In addition to over 30 paintings, drawings, and installation art, the exhibit includes video documentations of performances by Yolanda Ramirez.
Curated by Leeza Doreian and Mara Poliak.
