Modern/Contemporary dance represents 63 percent.
Ballet companies make up 8 percent.

The next slide notes that 51% percent of all companies are 501 (c) 3’s. Dance/NYC is discouraging this type of non-profit because the benefits of being a 501 (c) 3 no longer exist, and the work and cost of operating in that manner are very high.

The entire study will be available online, with a front-end tool that will let you easily pull out the information you want by answering a few questions.

Smart!

[and while editing my mobile post, I can respond to Justin’s comment… Census will be available online, in its entirety, this summer.]
