Burdąg Foundation
Supports research, production and educational projects in new and contemporary dance, performance and interdisciplinary arts. It aims at the development and opening out of these art forms as well as new ideas around them.
Burdąg Foundation wants to decrease the distance between the dance scene in Poland and the rest of the world by facilitating collaboration among choreographers, dancers and other artists from different countries as well as international educational projects.
The Foundation manages a temporary working and living space in the Polish countryside (Mazury) called Burdąg.
