Join us in shaping the future of dance as we embrace the theme of sustainability for the 2025 Dance/USA National Conference! This year, we’re diving into the vital conversations that keep our art form thriving—artistically and culturally. 

How do we foster equitable and inclusive ecosystems within the dance community? What does it take to ensure that the movements we create today leave a lasting legacy for tomorrow? 

Set against the vibrant backdrop of Chicago, the Dance/USA National Conference will provide a dynamic space to explore innovative ideas, actionable strategies, and collaborative opportunities. Through thought-provoking discussions, inspiring presentations and performances, and meaningful networking, we’ll come together to answer these questions and more.

The National Conference will take place across multiple venues to showcase the vibrancy of Chicago, including The Cultural Center, Harris Theater for Music and Dance, Roosevelt University, and the Palmer House. All of our venues are within an easy 10-15 minute walk from the Palmer House hotel.
