Since its founding by Benjamin Levy in 2002, LEVYdance has developed into a nationally-recognized performing arts organization that serves the San Francisco Bay Area dance community as a creative incubator, community space, and innovative arts presenter. In 2015, LEVYdance welcomed as Executive Artistic Director Garance Marneur, an award-winning stage designer, to lead the company into its next chapter of artistic excellence and creative and community partnerships.
As a nonprofit arts organization, our day-to-day operations lean on the support of our donors and sponsors. The kindness and generosity of our patrons sustain us in many ways, all allowing us to do what we do best: create art to ignite awareness of our shared human experience.
