About Us

ABOUT US

Kenyettá Dance Company (KDC) represents many things to many people. Above all else, KDC continues to be a community of dance artists who experience and express the joy, the promise and the pursuit of artistic excellence. KDC continues to examine the power of the human spirit from the African American aesthetic into the tapestry of arts organizations in Indianapolis, Indiana. Black Dance Matters is our platform!  KDC feels that we have a responsibility to share the dances we create with the Indianapolis community, as well as the region and nation, the relevant experiences of life in the communities where we live and the effects on us all.
