THE CENSUS IS COMING.

Here’s the skinny and if you’d like to help in any way, e-mail jcommresearch@dancenyc.org and let us know!

JComm’s Benn Rasmussen and Julia Kelly yammer about yaks, guerrillas, and our major research initiative—a Dance Workforce Census—with Tim Cynova and Sydney Skybetter of SkyNova:15.

Are you ready to be counted?  Subscribe to the JComm E-Monthly or friend us on Facebook so we can keep you posted.  JComm’s Dance Workforce Census will launch at the top of May.  That’s after you’ve filed your taxes, so being counted will take you all of 10 minutes.  In fact, Lori B. took a beta version in under 7.

Read all about this project HERE. Anyone in the field can get involved– there are all sorts of ways to help.  If you’re interested, please email Julia Kelly, External Relations Manager, at jcommresearch@dancenyc.org.

AND below find some illuminating stuff we’ve been reading, sharing, and discussing as we develop this research initiative.
