Hedwig Dances Celebrates 40th Anniversary Fundraiser!
Continue the Powerful Legacy of Hedwig Dances Celebrating 40 Years!
For 40 years Hedwig Dances has created visually stunning performances that connect cultures, provoke wonder, and spark big ideas. Helmed by Founder and Artistic Director Jan Bartoszek, recipient of the 2024 See Chicago Dance Legacy Award, Hedwig is known for its mission to mentor artists, cultivate community, and perform innovative dances. For our 40th Season, we are inviting audiences to partner with us to raise $100,000 to preserve this powerful legacy for years to come.
“Unbelievable that Hedwig has been going on for 40 years!…I think it's because of Jan's passion and her talent and her ability to bring people along with her.”
-Janet Carl Smith, Cultural Consultant
