About Bessie's
In Brooklyn, The Bessies is a New York City dance and performance awards organization. Established in 1984, it recognizes creative work by independent dance artists across choreography, performance, music composition, visual design, legacy, and service to the field. A Selection Committee of artists, presenters, producers, designers, and writers chooses nominees. The Bessies Membership brings together people working in dance for annual spring and fall roundtable discussions, participation in awards direction, and nominations for Selection Committee members. The organization also maintains an archive of Bessie Award recipients from 1984 to the present, including documentation of canceled 2020 projects and performances. Its activities advocate for New York dance nationally and internationally while gathering the city's dance-making communities.
