Atlas' City at Peace Summer Youth Employment Program has begun!
This week they brainstormed issues, topics, and concerns that are important to them and that they want to effect change. They also examined conditions of power and used the arts to explore personal relationships and experiences.

The Atlas is thrilled to announce
Dissonance Dance Theatre is now a Resident Arts Partner!
DDT, now in its 17th season, will present full-length contemporary ballet works on the Lang stage under the direction of Shawn Short. DDT's Fall season includes three productions, nine new works, and six choreographers of color. Ranging stylistically from contemporary ballet, percussive jazz, and modern dance, Dissonance Dance Theatre brings excitement, storytelling, and athleticism this fall.
"We are excited about our new partnership with Atlas and look forward to extending our artistic reach within the District. Atlas's support of DDT allows us to grow tremendously with its box office, production, and marketing support. Atlas has been home to DDT for more than 16 years. We are glad to call it officially home” Shawn Short, Founding Director/Principal Choreographer.

Congratulations to our 2023-2024 City at Peace cast!
The cast worked through our social justice and theater curriculum for an entire year! They earned community service hours, made lasting friendships, and learned about themselves and the world around them.
They wrote and performed an original musical theater performance that dealt with issues of homophobia, neurodiversity, and the ongoing struggle between parents and teenagers. We couldn't be more proud of this cast for their talent, tenacity, and courage!
The Summer Youth Employment Program at City at Peace begins this month! We're excited to start training with a new summer cohort!
