Danspace Project is a performing arts organization focused on contemporary dance, providing a platform for new work and a developmental space for choreographers. It is housed in the historic St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery, sharing the facility with other arts organizations, in the United States. The Commissioning Initiative has delivered more than 380 new works since its start in 1994. The organization serves contemporary dance artists seeking opportunities to develop and present their work, as well as audiences interested in innovative dance experiences. In the performing arts field, it is positioned as a space that supports diverse creators and encourages experimentation, linking artists with audiences. A recent development involves a partnership with Castelli Gallery to present Joan Jonas and Eiko Otake, Drawing in Circles.
