关于我们
One of the most established and honored performing arts institutions in America, Washington Performing Arts has engaged for more than half a century with artists, audiences, students, and civic life. The city is truly our stage: for decades, in venues ranging from concert halls and clubs to public parks, we have presented a tremendous range of artists and art forms, from the most distinguished symphony orchestras to both renowned and emerging artists in classical music, jazz, international genres, and more. We also have an ever-expanding artistic and educational presence on the internet, addressing the programming challenges of this time of pandemic while envisioning ongoing opportunities for online connection and community in a post-COVID world. Washington Performing Arts deeply values its partnerships with local organizations and other arts institutions. Through events online and in myriad performance venues and neighborhoods, we engage international visiting artists in community programs and introduce local artists to wider audiences. We place a premium on establishing artists as a continuing presence in the lives of both young people and adults through residencies and education programs. Our achievements have been recognized with a National Medal of Arts and with three Mayor’s Arts Awards from the DC Government. We have now embarked upon our second half-century, ever inspired by the motto of our founder, Patrick Hayes: “Everybody in, nobody out.”

Did you know Washington Performing Arts presents an annual award for dance? We are proud to announce the recipients of the 2024 Pola Nirenska Dance Awards: ?? Sarah Beth Oppenheim - Outstanding Achievements in Dance ?? Sylvia Soumah - Lifetime Achievement in Dance The Pola Nirenska Dance Awards are named after the esteemed D.C. modern dance teacher and choreographer and recognize outstanding contributions to the dance community, with special consideration given to those based in the Washington, D.C., region. These awards, supported by the late Dr. Jan Karski and granted by Washington Performing Arts, reflect our commitment to sustaining and nurturing performing artists. They honor individuals who make a significant impact on dance locally and often nationally. Sarah Beth Oppenheim shared her gratitude: "Coming by opportunities, conferred titles, or recognition in the dance world is, for me, really about a touchpoint to gather and celebrate with my community. I am filled with gratitude; so deeply thankful to the WPA for the support in continuing to do the work I love." Sylvia Soumah expressed: "This is truly an honor, and I am so grateful to be seen in the community. As a long-time artist in the DMV, it is hard to know sometimes how much your work has impacted the DMV." Congratulations to both recipients on their outstanding achievements!
