Program accomplishments

  • Artistic Creation and Performance: This year, milkleaf focused on the presentation of existing pieces, expansion of professional networks, and the development of new artistic content. Adaptations Dance Theater commissioned Homeward for premiere in Maui and we restaged Kindling for the local community at the San Pedro Arts Festival and 25th Orange County Arts Awards. Our film All of Us continued to screen worldwide at festivals in Colorado, Mexico, Illinois, Maine, and beyond. Projects completed for upcoming 2026 premieres included the screendance Arms of Gravity and the concert duet History of Her. Expenses were intentionally low, conserving funds for future productions.
    Expenses $7,691
  • Education & Outreach: Milkleaf's 5-year plan includes building relationships with local, regional, and national dance organizations, emphasizing pre-professional and professional dance education to contribute to high quality training in modern dance. The President accepted teaching invitations from The Wooden Floor and Orange County School for the Arts in Southern California in addition to offering a workshop at The American Dance Festival in North Carolina. She presented her pedagogical research at the 2025 National Dance Education Organization National Conference, titled "The Power of Movement: Dance Education Traditions and Innovations," in Detroit MI. These and other outreach activities were financed through guest artist honoraria and other organizations, benefiting milkleaf at no cost.
  • Institutional Development: Milkleaf continued to develop its institutional capabilities by reviewing and complying with California's requirements for 501(c)(3) corporations, and developing its website including a donation window. Milkleaf applied for two national grants: The Democracy Cycle (not awarded) and Creative Capital (not awarded). Milkleaf began issuing a newsletter to publicize its activities. Two new board members were recruited to broaden the expertise and resources milkleaf can draw on from its Board of Directors. There is room to recruit more members for the Board. The costs associated with this category are a share of administrative overhead.
    Expenses $1,000
