AILEY is proud to continue our partnership with the Whitney Museum as we celebrate 20 years of Ailey Extension.

Join us in the theater on the third floor as we commemorate our anniversary with free mini dance classes taught by Ailey instructors Judith McCarty, Quenia Ribeiro, and Matthew Johnson Harris. All ages and skill levels are welcome! 

Afterward, stay for a dance party on the Museum’s seventh floor, featuring DJ sets curated by music venue Public Records, and explore Amy Sherald: American Sublime on the fifth floor.
