The goal of Dances in Progress is to offer resources to artists that include access to a performance venue at no cost, feedback on their piece from both local experts and the general public and photo and video documentation of their work that can be used for applications or promotional materials.

Dances in Progress is funded, in part, by the Barr Foundation and a grant from Medford Cultural Council.
