What an incredible weekend!

It was a true honor to host the Martha Graham Dance Company at Performance Garage ahead of their Opening Night performance at the Annenberg Theater in Philadelphia.

Our YouthMoves students from the Franklin Learning Center had the opportunity to attend the matinee, experiencing Graham's iconic work live for the very first time.

Moments like these deepen our students' understanding of dance history, artistry, and the transformative power of live performance. We are grateful for the opportunity to connect them with one of the most influential companies in modern dance and look forward to creating more meaningful arts experiences for our students.

Daughter of a Turkish father and a Norman mother, Euphrate is a high school senior facing challenges within the education system. Besides her rather mediocre grades, she must soon express her choice of career path: a real conundrum. She begins to wonder how her dual culture has influenced her identity. In a witty and humorous dialogue with her father, she embarks on a journey to explore her Turkish roots and childhood memories. Blending dance and words, the show joyfully expresses the path toward affirming her own voice as a woman.
