The Chilmark dance colony founded by the late Patricia Nanon 46 years ago has been awarded a prestigious $350,000 grant from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, both organizations announced today.
The Yard maintained the intimacy of its summer Chilmark performances on Saturday by creating a dance floor on the Performing Arts Center stage for two shows by Amirah Sackett.
Muslim hip-hop dancer Amirah Sackett brings her skills and passion to the Vineyard on Saturday as part of the Yard's winter series. Ms. Sackett said audiences can expect a “mystical” show inspired by the poetry of Rumi.
The Yard is on a mission to help Vineyarders beat the winter doldrums with dance.
