Keeping count. Finding the music. Showing emotion. Every performance requires dancers to balance countless details in body and mind—often hidden from the audience. This year, Ariel Rivka Dance invites you to step inside that experience.

At our annual fundraising event, we’re opening the door to the inner world of our dancers.  Company members will share their thoughts in real time—what they’re tracking, what they’re feeling, and how they connect to each other and to the music. It’s an intimate, behind-the-scenes perspective that reveals the artistry and humanity that make performance powerful, you’ll see movement in a whole new way. We’re especially excited to introduce you to new ARD company members while also spotlighting dancers who have been with us for years. 

The evening will take place in the stunning Rubin Museum Foyer, a space that celebrates culture, creativity, and community. Enjoy light bites, an open bar, and lively conversation with fellow arts lovers. Your presence supports the growth of Ariel Rivka Dance and ensures we can keep creating opportunities for audiences to connect more deeply with movement and meaning.

Come curious, leave inspired—join us for an unforgettable night inside the mind of a dancer.
