DANCE | HUNGER | ACTION

More than just a performance, Dance | Hunger | Action is a call to action.

 

This multi-day festival benefiting the Houston Food Bank, raises awareness and mobilizes support for the fight against food insecurity in Houston and surrounding areas. September marks National Hunger Action Month, and we invite you to stand with us in this global movement to end hunger - through art, action, and community.

Join us for a multi-day festival where powerful performances and purposeful programming come together to fight food insecurity through art and action.
