In Memory of Gregory Hines
"Gregory Hines brought international attention to tap dance as an American art form, as well as a positive, accessible, forward, and inclusive mode of self expression! He courageously instigated, supported, created, produced, and starred in numerous tap dance productions on the stage, in film and on television. He co-chaired the New York City Tap Festival from the very beginning, and he was always there for me. I completely relied on him for his honesty, his very sound advice, and his total moral support.  He exemplified true class all the way. He also had a sense of humor that kept me laughing at myself, and at the world! He was the tap dance community’s chief ambassador, totally dedicated to the preservation of tap dance, its history, education and presentation. So, in his spirit, we continue! We will miss Gregory terribly, but we will never forget him. And in his honor, we will continue to present numerous programs which help to promote and preserve the art of tap dance. That’s what he would want us to do."

Tony Waag, Executive Director
