Judy Dworin Performance Project
Moving for Change Since 1989.
As we continue to confront COVID-19 and embrace the anti-racism call to action spurred by the terrible death of George Floyd, Judy Dworin Performance Project (JDPP) is committed internally and externally to use the arts in fresh ways to express and communicate both what has been, and a responsive vision of what can be. As we continue to find new ways to reach out to our program participants and the larger community, we do so knowing that the power of the arts keeps us grounded, connected and resilient. Through our social media platforms, we are providing arts activities and participatory viewing experiences that release the imagination, bring further awareness to critical issues, and encourage thoughtful and healing participation. We do this celebrating the dignity of all, the wisdom of the body, the deep reflective capacity of the mind and the belief that the arts are key in supporting our wellbeing. We continue to deeply re-examine and reimagine knowing that in our dimmest moments the arts provide light, inspiration and hope. We are now and always...Moving with and for Change. Join us!!

As we look at our country, at its huge divides, at the unconscionable trespass that occurred last Wednesday and the warnings of more to come, how can we open our hearts and minds to a different reality?
During this crisis in our country, in the midst of a pandemic that continues to wreak havoc, feeling fear, anger, grief and disbelief, it is very hard to conceive of compassion-- of bridging the divides that confront us so starkly. Ultimately, compassion will be our task at hand if we are ever to unify and work for the vision of a country that is just and treats all of its citizens equally-- a place that we are proud to call our home.
As we move toward a Monday honoring the incredible legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., let us remember his words throughout this weekend, next week and onward,
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
(from his book Strength to Love)
"We must walk on in the days ahead with an audacious faith in the future.”
(from his address Where do We Go from Here)
Let’s be audacious in our faith in the future and keep hope lit brilliantly in our hearts and minds.
