Meet the Organizers
Monkeyhouse is an award winning nonprofit organization based out of Malden that is dedicated to connecting communities to choreography. We are interested in finding ways that choreography impacts everyone and the ways that we all move with meaning every day.
NACHMO (National Choreography Month) is your yearly kick in the pants to create new work! NACHMO Boston is co-hosted by Alive Dance Collective and Monkeyhouse and strives to grow connections in our dance communities and offer both budding and established choreographers a chance to create and present. Participants take on the challenge of creating a new work during January (National Choreography Month), supported by choreographic prompts, mentoring sessions, and connections to the dance community.
