Houston Black Dance Festival

July 21, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 8:00 pm

The Houston Black Dance Festival celebrates African and Diasporic dance in Houston. It invites dance artists/choreographers from Houston and beyond to share through four key components: performances, dance workshops, professional workshops, and community gatherings. It is a 4-day festival that provides a platform for local Black dancers to share their artistic practice and foster deeper collaboration; to further develop the infrastructure of Black dance in the city; and to situate Houston as a cultural hub and tourist destination to celebrate Black dance.
