	"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." —Martin Luther King, Jr.

	As part of Ailey�s upcoming US tour we are proud to present ballets that use dance as a way to shine light on the things that matter. This season, such works include: Donald Byrd�s Greenwood, which pulls 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre out of the shadows. Darrell Grand Moultrie�s Ounce of Faith, which expresses the importance of valuing our teachers and mentors. Jamar Roberts� Ode, which is a meditation on the beauty and fragility of life in a time of growing gun violence. Mr. Ailey�s Revelations, which illuminates the journey from struggle to surrender to salvation.

	To our extended Ailey family,

	Our heartfelt thoughts go out to you, your family and loved ones during this critical time in our world, and we hope this finds you all healthy and safe, and coping as best you can. In this defining moment we are reflecting on how resourceful the human spirit can be and how, together, we are able to lift each other up even in the midst of great uncertainty and anxiety. This couldn't be possible without the unwavering support we have received from friends like you, who play an integral role in the continuance of Alvin Ailey's vision. Throughout our 62-year history, the Ailey organization has brought people together through dance. During this time when we are unable to join you in the theater and in the classroom, we are instead bringing you and your family joy and inspiration through Ailey All Access—an online streaming series featuring performances of full length works from the repertory, Ailey Extension dance classes, original short films created by the Ailey dancers, and other specially created content. On Monday, to mark the anniversary of the first performance of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, *we streamed Alvin Ailey's masterpiece Revelations* in its entirety, so we could share its timeless message of hope with you. While sweeping cancelations of our regular activities have resulted in significant financial losses, we remain committed to doing everything we can to continue serving you and our community while supporting our dedicated dancers, instructors, and staff who are all part of preserving Alvin Ailey's legacy. We hope you will join us in these efforts. Today, we ask you to consider making a gift of any size** in order to continue Alvin Ailey's mission to deliver dance back to the people. By contributing what you can, you are sustaining the organization during this challenging time and keeping Ailey alive in the hearts of our community. We know this is a time of great hardship for so many, and we are grateful for whatever you might be able to do to help us. What makes Revelations beautiful and forever relevant, is that it speaks to the common humanity in us all, and reminds us that despite the uncertainty we face, *Still, We Dance.* Sincerely, Robert Battle, Artistic Director Bennett Rink, Executive Director P.S. Did you know that the new COVID-19 Relief Bill includes an incentive for charitable donations? Learn more.

	Judith Jamison created Hymn as a tribute to the late Alvin Ailey in 1993 and this week Ailey All Access presents Orlando Bagwell's documentary, A Hymn for Alvin Ailey, which features a performance of the ballet and interviews with key artists including Ms. Jamison. Her stirring work features text performed on stage by Anna Deavere Smith from interviews she did with the entire Company, along with Mr. Ailey's own words. The documentary goes behind the scenes of the ballet and gives you a look at Alvin Ailey's life from the perspective of those who knew him best. Watch the Ailey All Access premiere of the film tomorrow at 7pm EDT online. If you miss it, don't worry, you can watch it through Thursday, July 2 at 6:30pm EDT.

	Feeling the Ailey Spirit

	We hope you were able to enjoy last night''s live stream of The Ailey Spirit Virtual Benefit and that you left entertained and inspired. It was truly a labor of love. Last night''s performance will be available through next Thursday, June 18, and so if you missed it, or want to view it again, please do so here! We also invite you to pass this link along to your family and friends. The Company has danced on numerous international stages, but the virtual stage has opened our eyes to infinite possibilities. Our intention is to entertain—and also to enlighten, to educate, and to bring you the healing and uplifting powers of dance. That has always been our purpose. Thank you for sharing this experience with us last night. Thank you to all of our dedicated supporters, our Ailey family, who have always shown up to see us in theaters and showed up virtually last night. To those who experienced Ailey for the first time last night, welcome to the family. We can''t wait to see you all back in a theater near you when it is again possible for us to tour! On a personal and very vital note, as an organization, we are dedicated to ending racial inequity. We stand in unison with all who are moved to do the same. To that end, as announced last night, a portion of our proceeds will be donated to the Equal Justice Initiative. Sincerely, Robert Battle, Artistic Director Bennett Rink, Executive Director

Join Us for the Online Premiere of City of Rain

	The Ailey company's performance of Tony Award nominee Camille A. Brown's City of Rain is more than just a restaging, it's a reimagining of the work she originally created in 2010. This quietly intense work honors a dancer friend of Brown's who passed away. A decade later, she made changes to reflect both the talents of the Ailey dancers and her own artistic growth. City of Rain premieres tomorrow night at 7pm EDT and will be available to watch through Thursday, May 28 at 6:30pm EDT.

Enjoy Ailey All Access


	Your Support Makes a Difference

	We hope you will enjoy Camille A Brown's City of Rain and the range of full-length ballets, classes, and conversations that will be hosted on Ailey All Access in the weeks ahead. Please consider making a special gift today to help us continue Alvin Ailey's mission to deliver dance back to the people. By contributing what you can, you are sustaining our organization during this challenging time and keeping Ailey alive in the hearts of our community.

	To our extended Ailey family,

	Our heartfelt thoughts go out to you, your family and loved ones during this critical time in our world, and we hope this finds you all healthy and safe, and coping as best you can. In this defining moment we are reflecting on how resourceful the human spirit can be and how, together, we are able to lift each other up even in the midst of great uncertainty and anxiety. This couldn't be possible without the unwavering support we have received from friends like you, who play an integral role in the continuance of Alvin Ailey's vision. Throughout our 62-year history, the Ailey organization has brought people together through dance. During this time when we are unable to join you in the theater and in the classroom, we are instead bringing you and your family joy and inspiration through Ailey All Access—an online streaming series featuring performances of full length works from the repertory, Ailey Extension dance classes, original short films created by the Ailey dancers, and other specially created content. On Monday, to mark the anniversary of the first performance of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, *we streamed Alvin Ailey's masterpiece Revelations* in its entirety, so we could share its timeless message of hope with you. While sweeping cancelations of our regular activities have resulted in significant financial losses, we remain committed to doing everything we can to continue serving you and our community while supporting our dedicated dancers, instructors, and staff who are all part of preserving Alvin Ailey's legacy. We hope you will join us in these efforts. Today, we ask you to consider making a gift of any size** in order to continue Alvin Ailey's mission to deliver dance back to the people. By contributing what you can, you are sustaining the organization during this challenging time and keeping Ailey alive in the hearts of our community. We know this is a time of great hardship for so many, and we are grateful for whatever you might be able to do to help us. What makes Revelations beautiful and forever relevant, is that it speaks to the common humanity in us all, and reminds us that despite the uncertainty we face, *Still, We Dance.* Sincerely, Robert Battle, Artistic Director Bennett Rink, Executive Director P.S. Did you know that the new COVID-19 Relief Bill includes an incentive for charitable donations? Learn more.

A Season You Won''t Want to Miss, Dec 2–31

	Dear Ailey family, First, I want to say thank you. Your heartfelt messages have truly motivated and inspired the entire Ailey organization these past several months, giving us hope and a renewed resolve for the future. As we look forward, we are reaffirming Alvin Ailey''s vision that dance be accessible to everyone. This December, while we will not be together in a theater for our annual winter season in New York, I invite you to learn more about what''s in store for the upcoming virtual season, Dec 2–31. I''m especially excited to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of Revelations. In the spirit of making dance accessible to all, the season will be available to watch for free online. This time has fortified our commitment to our founder''s legacy. When Alvin Ailey started the Company 62 years ago it was a radical idea. Now, as we look at our connection to social justice, we remember even more fervently that the stories we are telling through dance must be seen and heard around the world. With hope and gratitude, Robert Battle, Artistic Director

"Not all the works are political, but they certainly reflect my feelings about what goes on in this country." —Alvin Ailey

	A Message From Robert Battle

	"Not all the works are political, but they certainly reflect my feelings about what goes on in this country. I mean I can't get over that, I'm a black man living in this." —Alvin Ailey As a black man living in this and as the Artistic Director of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater I come to you and say, our destiny is calling—one without hate, oppression, and?violence—and it is our turn to answer. Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater was born out of the Civil Rights Movement, a struggle that called for black people to be seen as human and asked those who believed in equal rights for all to use what they had to push the cause forward, peacefully. Mr. Ailey chose dance as his weapon of protest, creating a legacy of artistic activism. And it is a weapon we have continued to use over the last 62 years. Our arsenal has grown with the addition of Ailey II, The Ailey School, Ailey Extension and Ailey Arts in Education and Community programs. We mobilize and galvanize every time we step into a school or perform anywhere in the United States or around the world. We have radically changed the environments in which we operate, and yet we are clear there is more to do. Mr. Ailey once said, "one of the worst things about racism is what it does to young people." Yet we see that it is these young people who are leading the force for change. We stand with those who are on the front lines and those who put themselves at risk combatting hate and injustice. In unison with our community, we rise to fight racism and demand equal justice. For our entire Ailey family, we are here to provide you the space, the hope, the example, the balm, the strength, and the revelations you need through this struggle as we move forward together in answering the call. Watch Ailey's Khalia Campbell in an excerpt of Darrell Grand Moultrie's Ounce of Faith.

Give the Gift of Dance this Holiday Season

	This holiday season, the Ailey company is thrilled we can offer our first-ever virtual season, Ailey Forward, for free to viewers around the world. We hope you've had a chance to enjoy it and that you'll consider making a gift in lieu of buying a ticket. Your gift helps sustain the organization as we move forward into a new year and makes it possible for Ailey to provide even more opportunities to give dance back to the people through online initiatives, educational outreach, scholarships for talented students, and more. Your gift, no matter how large or small, makes a difference.

Make a Gift to Ailey



	Did you know that the new COVID-19 Relief Bill includes an incentive for charitable donations? Recent changes to law affecting contributions: A new, one year (2020) above-the-line deduction for cash contributions up to $300 to charities like Ailey for all taxpayers (not just those itemize deductions). Also, for individual taxpayers who itemize their deductions, the limit on deductions for contributions is suspended for 2020.
