GREETINGS FROM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, GRACE C. STANISLAUS I am honored to have assumed the mantle of leadership of the National Black Arts Festival (NBAF) during it 27th year of providing stellar, world-class multidisciplinary programs featuring the arts and artists of African descent. It has been a nearly three-decade-long journey during which NBAF has transformed from a three-day to a ten-day outdoor festival and now to a threemonth program season. During the journey, we have been recognized and celebrated within and outside of Atlanta as an economic and cultural driver for the city, as an engaged collaborator and strategic partner with local, national and international cultural and educational organizations, as a supporter of artists of all ages and as a resource and a source of exposure and access for our children, teens and young adults. After 27 years of consistently offering programs and experiences that are educational, enriching and entertaining to diverse audiences of every age and cultural background, of supporting, presenting, showcasing and celebrating the incredibly rich and diverse art forms and artists of the African Diaspora, we have cause for celebration as we march toward our milestone 30th anniversary in 2018. In 2008, the United States Congress proclaimed NBAF as important to the “cultural fabric of greater Atlanta and all of America.” We are uniquely positioned, and it is on this platform that we continue to build for the future. Today our three-month program season offers our audiences more and greater opportunities for education, enrichment and entertainment. This new direction and format of spotlighting one discipline and offering an extended program season was initiated last year, and it offers NBAF more opportunities to engage world-class artistic talent, reach larger audiences and establish, deepen and extend cultural and educational partnerships within and outside of Atlanta. The 2015 program season, which launches in mid-July with programming through mid-September, is focused on dance. We go deep into the cultural history and legacy of dance from the 18th to the 21st centuries with a symposium and a film series, world-class performances, workshops and demonstrations, discussions and conversations that shine a spotlight on dance and the dancers, choreographers and dance companies — the luminaries and trailblazers — who shaped and defined the discipline. Participation and interactivity are this season’s hallmarks — to have a full and enriching experience of dance, you have to get up and dance. It’s just not as much fun sitting on the sidelines! Our 2015 program season was developed in concert with dance and film historians, scholars and practitioners within and outside of the region. As in the past, partnerships, alliances and engagement with a broad base of cultural and educational organizations has been key. Morehouse College, Duke University, the High Museum of Art, the Rialto Center for the Arts at Georgia State University, Center for Civil and Human Rights, Center Stage Theater, Georgia Tech Office of the Arts, Hammonds House Museum, Youth Speaks and many others join NBAF as partners, collaborators and venues in the 2015 season. In 2015, and beyond, NBAF will continue to be a catalyst for and a participant in creative and strategic partnerships and alliances as we encourage and support the presentation of new work, continue to offer a lens into the rich cultural history and legacy of people of African descent and into the creative process through performances, workshops and demonstrations, to draw extraordinary artistic talent to Atlanta and to showcase and nurture local talent in all disciplines. Through programs that support artists and creative forms of expression, we will encourage and support the presentation of new work and to bring arts into our schools in ways that nurture the creativity of our children. Thank you to our partners, sponsors and volunteers and to our corporate, government, foundation and individual supporters, among them our dedicated Board of Directors, who enable us to realize our mission and to continue our good work.

King Jr. Center, the Georgia Aquarium, the World of Coca-Cola, CNN Center, Centennial Olympic Park, Woodruff Arts Center, Atlanta Botanical Garden, Children’s Museum of Atlanta, National Center for Civil and Human Rights, College Football Hall of Fame and many more.

SPOTLIGHT SERIES: Performance and Conversation with Savion Glover – “SoLe Sanctuary” Sunday, July 19, 6 p.m. Rialto Center for the Arts Georgia State University 80 Forsyth St. NW, Atlanta In “SoLe Sanctuary,” Savion Glover, the celebrated tap master and trailblazer, offers an astounding celebration and recognition of his mentors Gregory Hines, Sammy Davis Jr. and others. “SoLe Sanctuary” marks a pinnacle in Glover’s illustrious career as a tap dancer, choreographer and educator in which he honors the history and development of tap with a rhythmic and expressive production described by the New York Times as a “deeper exploration of the idea of a dancer as an instrument.” Glover is known for his signature dance style in which he gradually deconstructs traditional tap dancing moves and incorporates more innovative steps. He has choreographed and appeared in films such as “Tap” starring Gregory Hines and Sammy Davis, Jr., and “Bamboozled,” directed by Spike Lee, and the Academy Award-winning films “Happy Feet” and “Happy Feet 2.” In 1995, he choreographed the critically-acclaimed Broadway musical “Bring in ‘da Noise, Bring in ‘da Funk,” which explored the history of blacks in America through the art of tap.
Master Class with Savion Glover Saturday, July 18, 12 p.m. High Museum of Art, 1280 Peachtree Street, Atlanta A trailblazer who sparked a modern revival and brought tap to the forefront of popular culture, Savion Glover demonstrates his mastery through a special master class that appeals to young aspiring dancers, pre-professionals and lovers of tap of all ages, backgrounds and level of dance proficiency. 2015 NBAF Playbill

I WOULDN’T BE HERE WITHOUT GRADY. I WAS JUST GOING TO VISIT MY BROTHER. I was coming around I-285 and was involved in a tragic car accident. I had more than 25 broken bones and life-threatening internal injuries. The paramedics got me to Grady and the doctors started working on me. One looked me in the eyes and said “I can fix this.” Thank you, Jesus. I was def initely in the right place. I’m lucky to be alive. I give all that to the grace of God and Grady Hospital.

Local, national and international dance experts, scholars and performers introduce the NBAF season focus on dance across the African Diaspora in a day-long symposium that examines the national and global impact and the history, traditions and rich variety of dance forms that emerged from the 18th century to the present.

Developed and moderated by Professor Thomas F. DeFrantz, a dance historian, dancer, choreographer and scholar at Duke University African and African American Studies Department and author of several publications on Black dance including Dancing Many Drums: Excavations in African American Dance (2002) and Dancing Revelations: Alvin Ailey’s Embodiment of African American Culture (2004), the symposium “Dance Across the Diaspora” emphasizes audience participation, engagement and interactivity through conversation and exchange as well as dance demonstrations of old social, modern and contemporary street-derived forms.

FILM PROGRAM
FILM SCREENINGS AND CONVERSATIONS: Representing Us: Black Dance in Film As part of its Film Program, NBAF offers a curated film series in partnership with Stephane Dunn, Associate Professor and Director of Morehouse College’s Cinema, Television & Emerging Media Studies (CTEMS) program. The series focuses a critical and historical lens on dance through vintage and modern films, honors the rich contribution of Black dance performance in film and celebrates a legacy of innovation and artistry. Black Dance in Film highlights performances across several historical periods of cinema, including Hollywood’s 1940s musical era. Through screenings and conversations, the series explores the Afro-Diasporic roots of Black dance, raising several key questions: How did race and gender politics underline the historical treatment of Black dance artists in early film and complicate the representation of the Black body and Black dance performance? How has the artistry of Black dancers been translated on the big screen in performances that have innovated and revised the possibilities of dance representation in film? How has a mix of diverse styles from traditional African dance movements to ballet and hip-hop evolved in cinematic representation across different historical and social periods?
Screening of “Stormy Weather” (1943) Sunday, July 26, 3 p.m. Center for Civil and Human Rights, 100 Ivan Allen Jr. Blvd., Atlanta The classic musical film “Stormy Weather” starring Lena Horne and Bill Robinson presents an amazing array of music and dance performances. The film features a performance by the Nicholas brothers, one of the most famous dance scenes in the history of cinema, and showcases performance and choreography by Katherine Dunham and her dancers.
Discussants: Dr. Stephane Dunn, Morehouse College with Dr. Alessandra Raengo, Department of Communications, Georgia State University
