Two hour consultation with BAX/Brooklyn Arts Exchange Founder/Executive Director, Marya Warshaw, to discuss setting up your non for profit, funding your project,  or setting artistic goals.

Marya has been the Executive/Artistic Director of BAX/Brooklyn Arts Exchange since 1991. In 1998 BAX, under Ms. Warshaw’s direction, received a New York Dance and Performance “Bessie” Award for its innovative work creating a house and a home for the arts in Brooklyn. She serves on the current Bessie Committee as well as numerous other state and city arts panels.

Ms. Warshaw received a fellowship to the Rockefeller Foundation’s Bellagio Center, Italy in November 2010 to write about her work with Resident Artists and the value of the BAX urban residency program.

She has been honored to work with so many talented, innovative artists, many of whom she now counts as friends including George Emilio Sanchez, Dean Moss, Martha Bowers, Christalyn Wright, Jose Garcia, Yasuko Yokoshi, Judith Sloan, Imani Henry, Nami Yamamoto, Faye Driscoll, and Shannon Hummel.

Warshaw danced as a child at the Center for Modern Dance Education, in New Jersey, studied at The Cunningham School and with June Finch and developed her first performing space Chichicastenango with dear friend Susan Bodine.
