Artistic Ventures in Dance (AVID) is a dynamic dance organization dedicated to creating ART that MOVES. We expand what ballet can be—and who it can reach—through artistic fearlessness, utilizing classical technique while taking risks and pursuing innovation with courage, curiosity, and creativity.

Rooted in Boulder, Colorado, AVID prioritizes creating meaningful dance opportunities for artists and audiences throughout its home state, serving communities hungry for innovative, high-quality performance that resonates on a human level. As a natural extension of the company’s artistic curiosity and growth, AVID looks beyond Colorado—sharing local perspectives while cultivating annual projects in New York City and partnerships around the country, allowing the work to be informed by a broader national dance landscape.

As the company continues to evolve, it remains grounded in its mission to inspire, engage, and collaborate. With a clear artistic vision and growing momentum, AVID is committed to sharing bold, high-quality dance as widely as possible—creating meaningful impact in Colorado while engaging audiences on a national stage.
