Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival

Jacob’s Pillow’s Dance Festival 2019 is now underway which includes world premieres, new commissions, international artists, anniversary celebrations, Pillow-exclusive engagements, and work developed at the Pillow Lab.

Entering its 87th consecutive summer, Jacob’s Pillow is home to the longest-running dance festival in the United States, a National Historic Landmark, a National Medal of Arts recipient, and has steadily expanded its reach in the field and its local community as a year-round center for dance research and development.

Festival 2019 opens tomorrow, attracting audiences both on and off its site in the Berkshires of Western Massachusetts, through August 25th. To tell us more, we welcome Jacob’s Pillow Director Pamela Tatge.
