Honoring Judith Jamison

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater will return to New York City Center, November 29-December 31 for the Company’s 65th Anniversary season. In the spirit honoring the amazing women of Ailey, this year’s Gala honoree is Artistic Director Emerita Judith Jamison. Her beauty and strength as a dancer, creativity as a choreographer, and vision and commitment as a leader continue to inspire our company today.

The season’s Opening Night Gala will celebrate this glorious occasion with a one-night-only performance of a world premiere created in collaboration with a special guest artist. It will close with Alvin Ailey’s indelible Revelations, danced to a live choir singing the unforgettable score of spirituals.

Proceeds from the Gala support the creation of new works, scholarships for talented students at The Ailey School, and Ailey’s innovative educational programs for children.
