After careful consideration, we've decided that @dradance's highly anticipated Fire Island Dance Festival and Hudson Valley Dance Festival will be on hiatus until 2022. Thanks to dedicated supporters like you, Broadway Cares will still be able to support the festivals' local communities. Fire Island's Pines Care Center will again receive a $25,000 grant and $32,500 in discretionary grants will be sent to 13 vital Hudson Valley organizations.

While gathering on Long Island’s stunning Great South Bay and in the gorgeous fall foliage of the Catskills to celebrate the magic of dance isn’t possible this year, donations can be made to support the festivals and the communities that host them at dradance.org.
