For over five decades, Dance Films Association (DFA) has nurtured a global community of dance and film artists, scholars, students, and audiences. We help choreographers expand their creative voices through filmmaking, introduce filmmakers to the expressive depth of dance, and create meaningful opportunities for audiences to experience innovative and culturally rich work. By connecting artists, presenting groundbreaking films, and providing vital creative resources, DFA helps bring bold new artistic visions to life.

Your support makes this work possible.

Every donation directly fuels DFA’s programs that champion artists and expand access to dance film, including:

• Dance on Camera Festival — the longest-running dance film festival in the world, showcasing visionary work from international artists
• Dance Film Labs — providing mentorship and professional development for emerging and established creators
• Dance Films Presents — bringing curated screenings and partnerships to diverse audiences year-round
• Production Grants — directly supporting artists in creating new dance films

When you donate to DFA, you are investing in artists, preserving and advancing an essential art form, and helping ensure that dance film continues to inspire, challenge, and connect communities around the globe.

Join us in supporting the future of dance on camera. Your gift — at any level — helps movement reach new screens, new audiences, and new possibilities.
