CELEBRATING OUR 11th YEAR
The East Village Dance Project (EVDP) was founded in 1997 as a dance development program for
children ages 4-17, under the artistic direction of Martha Tornay. The program began with a vision
and a handful of talented and dedicated young students. As we launch our 11th year, the program
has grown to over 60 students with a diverse range of unique talents. Many students participate in
the pre-professional program, attending 4 or more classes a week. EVDP is pleased to announce
the development of East Village Dance Company fall 2008.
EVDP students have been accepted into professional dance academies such as
Ballet Tech and School of American Ballet.
From September through June, EVDP offers classes in modern dance, ballet, pointe, and
improvisation. EVDP is an all-inclusive program. No student is turned away due to lack of funds.
Tuition assistance is made possible by the Charlotte Ruby Cantor Fund, supporting the education of
young dancers in the East Village.
EVDP students have the opportunity to perform each spring at such venues as Pace University, NYU
Skirball Center, Abrons Arts Center and La MaMa ETC.  They have also performed with Kids Café
Festival, Vanaver Caravan Dance Festival, Keigwin + Company
and at Lincoln Center Out-of-Doors 2007.         
EVDP is a program of 7 Loaves Inc./GOH Productions, a nonprofit arts service organization.
Donations are gratefully accepted and are tax-deductible.
