NYC’s annual celebration of dance and performance comes to Lincoln Center this summer! The Bessie Awards have saluted outstanding and groundbreaking creative work in choreography, performance, music composition, visual design, legacy, and service to the field of dance by independent dance artists and organizations for 39 years; and this year, we honor the 2023 Bessies Artists on stage at Damrosch Park!
