thanks to Eva Yaa Asantewaa (former performance journal contributor and NYC-based dance blogger) for sharing some links on her blog…
http://danceinteractive.jacobspillow.org/ This takes you to Jacob’s Pillow Dance Interactive which apparently has many tap archives for you to check out.
She also received the following call for help in archiving dance which we thought we could pass along here:
I’ve just received this announcement and request from an associate of Bonnie Oda Homsey of the Los Angeles Dance Foundation:
Matching Your Archive to America’s Dance Collections
Dance artists and dance companies:
Please tell us about your key legacy issues at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/matchingyourarchive2012
Your feedback informs the construction of Dance Collections Database (DCD) a free, online database matching artists/dance companies with potential institutions to house archive materials. We are seeking feedback from ALL types of dance forms and styles of concert, commercial, heritage-based and traditional, and social dance.
Survey is online January 2-February 13.
DCD is a NEA-funded consortia project with Dance Heritage Coalition.
