Description
Celebrate 20 years of the American’s with Disabilities Act (ADA) at this year’s CDR ADA Gala at the Radisson Riverside Hotel, from 6:00 P.M.–12 A.M. We’re proud to welcome Dance>Detour, Chicago’s first professional "diverse-abilities” dance company, comprised of multi-talented artists with and without disabilities. The company’s work is solely dedicated to exploring movement possibilities that include dancers of varying abilities who collaborate creatively together as EQUALS.
Dance>Detour grounds its work in the diversity of its dancers, celebrating their physical, ethnic, generational, cultural, and artistic differences. Their work includes many forms of dance alongside acting, singing, writing, and other media. Dance>Detour effectively demonstrates that capable artists with disabilities EXIST and make significant contributions to the arts.
The evening includes a sit-down dinner with friends and family, and promises to be a good time for all.
