    Preserve the Legacy of Dance Scope

    From 1965 to 1981, the American Dance Guild published Dance Scope, a groundbreaking journal that illuminated every corner of the modern dance world. These pages not only hold our history, but they are also a bridge to the future – one you can make possible with your donation.

    Your support will help us preserve rare and fragile materials from 16 years of dance history, digitize the physical journals for ongoing public access, and celebrate the enduring impact of modern dance!
