Dorrance Dance, Gallim Dance, Kiegwin & Company, Paul Taylor Dance Company, and Pontus Lidberg Dance join forces for the second annual Hudson Valley Dance Festival, returning to Catskill on Saturday, October 11. The event will not only transform Catskill Point’s 115-year-old wooden warehouse into a modern-day dance venue, but also serves as a benefit to raise money for Broadway Cares, which provides grants to over 450 AIDS and family service organizations nationwide. These grants provide aid lifesaving medications, counseling, healthy meals, and emergency financial assistance. The festival will feature one performance only, beginning at 5 pm at the Historic Catskill Point at 1 Main Street, and is produced by Dancers Responding to AIDS (DRA), a program of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. Ticket prices range from $40-$250. (212) 840-0770×229; Dradance.org.
