Our Mission

Kenneth Walker Dance Project is a contemporary ballet company dedicated to the expression of the modern condition through the lens of the classical vocabulary.

Founded by Kenneth Walker in 2004 and incorporated as a nonprofit in 2005, for the creation and presentation of original, contemporary ballet.

MISSION

Kenneth Walker Dance Project is a contemporary ballet company dedicated to the expression of the modern condition through the lens of the classical vocabulary.

To achieve its mission the company will:

  • Provide a breadth of dance experience.
  • Create original dance works.
  • Engage with the audience via the work and dance literacy.
  • Build upon the ballet tradition to create a more expansive form of expression.

The vision of KWDP is to bring the artist and audience to the poetics of the human condition. Inherent in this vision are several tensions: taking artistic risks without leaving our audience behind, managing financial stability while allowing for artistic experimentation, being sensitive to the community while recognizing that ballet is not a mass art form. We believe the transforming capacity of art and its power to affect human life will fulfill these objectives.
