Ananya Dance Theatre engaged and strengthened connections with new and existing members of its communities, positioned itself as a place of healing and teaching, and deepened the depth of its communities' investment in Ananya Dance Theatre. A total of of 26 dedicated Summer Intensive students, and a solid average of five people attending ongoing classes throughout 2021, increased the frequency of their class attendance and increased total education income by 80% over 2020, from $5,424 to $9,749. Summer Intensive students collectively gifted several large, live plants to the Shawngram Institute. Ananya Dance Theatre gathered feedback on this project from conversations with participants, attendance and accounting statistics, and observation of participants' interactions with our staff and each other.
