Diversity needs to be seen as a vital contribution to innovation to make art a representation of the whole society

This portal is the first Italian network online connecting people working in the field of inclusive dance, to promote exchange, contact and the growth of the whole sector. It represents an opportunity to compare the different artistic disciplines and accessibility to training, and the promotion of activities for both the artists and the public.

The aim is the professionalization of the artists, and the ambition is to present high - quality performances, which could take part in the most important Italian and international events of contemporary dance and Tanztheater (“dance theatre”).

Finding an Italian path with the support of an online network is the very first step to move the focus from disability to ability to create a cultural project with different bodies.

Those who are interested in participating can contact festival@orienteoccidente.it.
