Evenings of Dance in Westchester
Company:
Ballet des Amériques
We are happy to announce the return of our annual Evenings of Dance in Westchester to the ArtsWestchester Gallery in downtown White Plains. Performances will take place on Wednesday, April 15 and on Thursday, April 16, offering audiences a rare opportunity to experience world-class dance in an intimate and inspiring setting.
Choreographed by Ballet des Amériques founder and artistic director Carole Alexis, the program will feature a compelling mix of new works alongside audience favorites from the company’s diverse repertoire. Known for her distinctive choreographic voice that blends classical technique with contemporary sensibility, Alexis continues to create works that are both visually striking and emotionally resonant.
Set within the historic and beautifully designed ArtsWestchester Gallery, the performances foster a uniquely close connection between dancers and audience members. The gallery’s architectural character and vibrant downtown location enhance the immersive atmosphere, making these evenings a cultural highlight of Westchester’s spring season.
Since 2015, the annual Evenings of Dance have delighted audiences across the county. Previous performances have been presented at various venues such as our former studio theater in Port Chester, the Emelin Theatre in Mamaroneck and the Tarrytown Music Hall. The move to ArtsWestchester’s Gallery in White Plains marked an exciting new chapter in the series’ evolution, continuing its tradition of bringing exceptional dance to distinctive local venues.
“These evenings are an invitation — to come closer, to witness the living breath of movement, and to remember the power of human connection. In uncertain times, the arts are not a luxury; they are essential. Dance gathers us, awakens joy, restores our sense of meaning, and challenges us to reflect. It reminds us not only of our shared humanity, but of our capacity to grow, to feel deeply, and to become our better selves,” said Carole Alexis.
