Jane Franklin Dance celebrates movement
Making dance accessible to a wide range of audiences through public performance, dance education, community engagement and collaborations with artists from other disciplines. Jane Franklin Dance blends movement, sound and art; incorporates active participation by people of all ages; and performs on stage, outdoors, and at specific sites.
