UPDATE — WE’VE OFFICIALLY FUNDED OUR 2026 DUMBO DANCE FESTIVAL SEASON ❤️

Because of 60 supporters, FYA Studios has successfully funded our presentation at the 2026 DUMBO Dance Festival in New York City.

What began as a fundraising campaign has now become something much larger: the foundation for a sustainable creative home for original interdisciplinary performance.

This support allowed us to fund:

• Artist pay

• Rehearsal space

• Costumes

• Production support

• Marketing and audience development

But this is only the beginning.

The Art of Becoming at DUMBO Dance Festival is Act 1 of a much larger creative vision.

FYA Studios is currently developing toward a Full-Evening of interdisciplinary production season in New York City in December 2026.

FYA Studios is committed to:

• Paying artists fairly and professionally

• Developing original choreography and music

• Mentoring the next generation of fearless artists

• Creating full-length interdisciplinary productions

• Building sustainable pathways for working artists in NYC

This campaign is no longer just about reaching one stage.

It is about building a sustainable future for original interdisciplinary performance in New York City through FYA Studios –Media- Productions.

HOW DEVELOPMENT FUNDS WILL BE USED

Support for the 2026–2027 FYA Studios Creative Season directly funds:

• Paid artist and creative leadership salaries

• Development of new original choreographic works

• Original music composition and EP production

• Rehearsal space and artistic residencies

• Theater rental for December 2026 performances in NYC

• Lighting, sound, costume, and production design

• Audience development, marketing, and press outreach

• Documentation, photography, and archival film capture

FYA Studios is committed to creating sustainable pathways for interdisciplinary artists while producing original work rooted in fearless storytelling, embodiment, music, movement, and cinematic performance language.
