Additional thanks to The Joyce for its generous donation of ongoing meeting space. Special thanks to East Village Dance Project and GOH Productions, owners and operators of Avenue C Studio.
Enormous gratitude to Frances Alenikoff (1920-2012), owner and founder of Eden’s Expressway, and to her daughter Francesca Rheannon and family, for their continuing belief in the mission of Movement Research and for keeping alive Frances’s spirited example of what lifelong artistry is. Frances, you are missed!
