But what’s hardest to put into words is this: we had everything ready. The vision was built, the artists were booked, the community was gathered. And the storm took away our chance to actually deliver what we’d promised: the joy of dance, the pride of performance, and the comfort of community, for everyone who showed up.</p><p><br/></p><p>At around 2:15pm, we had just wrapped a community modern dance class with Stephanie Powell. There was a thunderstorm headed our way, and we wanted to get folks to safety for what we thought would be a brief rain delay. <br/><br/>After clearing out festival-goers, our team started reworking the schedule, figuring out how to get everyone back once the rain passed.</p><p><br/></p><p>Then, I got the call from the park. The extent of the damage was beyond our imagination. Our tents had blown into nearby power lines. The marley floor for our dancers was waterlogged and unsalvageable. Equipment was destroyed. Even a proclamation we received from the city was soaked through, the citation blurred, ink running to the edges of the paper.<br/><br/>There was no way to continue the festival. I had to call all our youth companies, professional performers, and drill teams to give them the bad news.</p><p><br/></p><p>Listen, we respect Mother Nature. What I’m still sitting with, two weeks later, is that everyone showed up ready, and we still couldn’t give this community the thing we built all year to give them.</p><p><br/></p><p>I do not yet know the full extent of the financial damage we are facing. What I do know is this: we are committed to paying artists for their work, no matter what happens around it. So even though the storm meant performances could not go on, we paid our artists in full: $140,000 in fees, honored for work the audience never got to see. </p><p><br/></p><p>In the weeks to come, there will be more phone calls with insurance companies, discussions of park permits, research into city-provided relief… Whatever we <em>can</em> recover in emergency relief or insurance payouts will not cover our costs in full.</p><p><br/></p><p class="last-child"><strong>That’s why I’m asking you to make a donation to DANCE IQUAIL today to help us recover from this loss.</strong></p></div></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td style="background-color:#FFFFFF;padding-top:12px;padding-bottom:30px;padding-right:16px;padding-left:16px;border:0;border-radius:0" valign="top" class="mceButtonBlockContainer" align="center" id="b72"><div><!--[if !mso]><!--></div><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="max-width:330px" role="presentation" data-block-id="72" class="mceButtonContainer"><tbody><tr class="mceStandardButton"><td style="background-color:#ED3B24;border-radius:5px;text-align:center" valign="top" class="mceButton"><a href="https://danceiquail.org/donate-festival-storm-damage" target="_blank" class="mceButtonLink" style="background-color:#ED3B24;border-radius:5px;border:2px none #000000;color:#ffffff;display:block;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;padding:16px 28px;text-decoration:none;text-align:center;direction:ltr;letter-spacing:0px" rel="noreferrer" data-button-link-id="72">Help Us Rebuild</a></td></tr></tbody></table><div><!--<![endif]--></div><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="max-width:330px" role="presentation" data-block-id="72" class="mceButtonContainer"><tbody><tr> <!--[if mso]> <td align="center"> <v:roundrect xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" href="https://danceiquail.org/donate-festival-storm-damage" data-button-link-id="72" style="v-text-anchor:middle; width:330px; height:50.5px;" arcsize="2%" strokecolor="#ED3B24" strokeweight="1px" fillcolor="#ED3B24"> <v:stroke dashstyle="solid"/> <w:anchorlock /> <center style=" color: #ffffff; display: block; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: 0px; text-decoration: none; text-align: center; direction: ltr;" > Help Us Rebuild </center> </v:roundrect> </td> <![endif]--> </tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td style="padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-right:0;padding-left:0" valign="top" class="mceGutterContainer" id="gutterContainerId-96"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="border-collapse:separate" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td style="padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-right:0;padding-left:0;border:0;border-radius:0" valign="top" id="b96"><table width="100%" style="border:0;background-color:transparent;border-radius:0;border-collapse:separate"><tbody><tr><td style="padding-left:24px;padding-right:24px;padding-top:12px;padding-bottom:12px" class="mceTextBlockContainer"><div data-block-id="96" class="mceText" id="d96" style="width:100%"><p><strong>I am exceedingly grateful to all of you, for supporting this dream of a West Philly dance festival, a celebration of Blackness and community.</strong><br/><br/>I need to also thank all the amazing artists, community partners, audiences, vendors, volunteers, Philadelphia, Parks and Recreation, photographers, videographers, and our full team of staff, consultants, contractors, and crews for such an amazing job on Celebrate Mantua.</p><p><br/></p><p>Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the residents of THE BOTTOM (aka Mantua).
