Bay Area Dance Counts
Shawl-Anderson Dance Center launched "Bay Area Dance Counts" in 2009. This project consisted of an online survey four times in 2009 for professional level dancers and choreographers of any dance form.
These statistics, made available to the public, are a valuable resource for the Bay Area dance community - artists, teachers, college programs, and schools. This information supports fundraising, grant proposals, advocacy, and programming.

Artist in Residence (AIR)
Shawl-Anderson Dance Center offers one of the few artist in residence programs in the Bay Area. The Center believes in the value of giving artists time and space to create work, free of expectations of an end product. In the Bay Area, regularly renting studio space is one of the biggest expenses for choreographers, and Shawl-Anderson strives to help two artists each year make work without struggling to pay for space.
Dance Up Close/East Bay
This presenting series run by Shawl-Anderson Dance Center offers local audiences an intimate space to see professional level work, and supports local choreographers who want to produce their work for several weeks in a row.
