LAUNCH: UBW Site!
Founded in 1984 by choreographer Jawole Willa Jo Zollar, Urban Bush Women (UBW) seeks to bring the untold and under-told histories and stories of disenfranchised people to light through dance. By facilitating the use of art as a means of addressing issues of social justice and encouraging civic engagement, UBW creates a more equitable balance of power in the dance world and beyond. Based in Brooklyn, UBW aspires to ensure continuity by strengthening and expanding the international community via ongoing professional education, development of new audiences, nurturing young talent and presenting bold, life-affirming dance works in a variety of settings including its annual Summer Leadership Institute.
As UBW's neighbors, we at DB are proud to announce the launch of UBW's new website at www.urbanbushwomen.org. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think!
