  • Dallas Arts & Cultural Facility Opening Guidelines
    DALLAS ARTS & CULTURAL FACILITY OPENING GUIDELINES Updated July 23, 2020 As Texas works to reopen from its COVID-19 closures, members of the Dallas nonprofit arts and cultural community have created guidelines to resume operations once authorized to do so. The standards capture overarching safety principles and risk mitigation practices in our industries that will guide the policies and strategies unique to each organization’s art form, audiences, artists, and venues. This is a living document. We will regularly assess the evolving status of the pandemic in North Texas and will, in alignment with the latest scientific and medical recommendations, make changes accordingly. These guidelines have been reviewed by Dr. Trish Perl, Chief, Division of Infectious Diseases at UT Southwestern Medical Center and her recommendations have been incorporated. Background: Arts and culture define the identity of Dallas. It's an industry which, before COVID-19, had an annual economic impact of close to $1B supporting 33,000 jobs. Each year, the economic impact generated by these small businesses produce more than $45M in local tax revenues.1 Our diverse, growing cultural community has supported our reputation as a creative, vibrant city helping to attract talent, jobs, and corporate relocations to Dallas. They create economic, cultural, tourism, and quality-of-life ripple effects touching every corner of our city. To resume operations, we are adopting reasonable measures as a roadmap to reduce risk moving forward while providing a safe, welcoming, and respectful patron experience. Guiding Principles for Reopening to the Public: Each organization will determine risk mitigation factors for external and internal conditions that will allow for its reopening and ongoing specific operating procedures.

  • Macedonia Film Premiere
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: July 8, 2019 Ramona Logan (214) 871-2376 Ext. 411 (214) 882-2451 cell [email protected] FREE Dallas Viewing of Cultural Exchange Film between DBDT Dancers, Macedonian Filmmakers, and Romani Musicians Dallas, TX. – Dallas Black Dance Theatre (DBDT) hosts the Dallas premiere of a creative documentary about African American history and dance in Dallas and Romani heritage and music in North Macedonia. The medium-length documentary, The Way of Clave, will premiere at 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm at Moody Performance Hall, 2520 Flora Street, Dallas, TX. 75201. DBDT dancers will take part in a Q&A following both showings. The 1:00 pm showing will include a live synchronous Q&A with participants in North Macedonia on screen. The documentary is the culmination of an eight-month cultural exchange Dallas Black Dance Theatre facilitated with Association MakeDox, a filmmaking nonprofit in the Republic of North Macedonia. All 13 DBDT dancers participated in the program with 12 Macedonian filmmakers and Romani musicians. Together, they learned about African American history and dance and Macedonian and Romani heritage and music. The dancers and musicians preserved and interpreted this heritage in site-specific performances in both countries. Filmmakers recorded their creativity and interactions in both countries, resulting in the 40-minute creative documentary. Funding for this cultural exchange project was provided by Communities Connecting HeritageSM (CCH), a program sponsored by the U.S. Department of State with funding provided by the U.S. Government and administered by World Learning. Dallas Black Dance Theatre was among five American cultural and educational organizations to be paired with five international cultural and educational organizations for the CCH exchange program.
