Another Austin arts organization has lost its NEA grant.
However, the Tapestry Dance Company is taking it, in as much stride as possible.

Instead of their annual 3 day tap extravaganza, the Soul 2 Sole Festival, they are holding a one-day event.    

Acia Gray, the Executive Artistic Director and Co-Founder of the Tapestry Dance Company, says they are treating the Tap Jam as a fundraiser for 2026,  including their silent auction. 


They are also hoping the event on June 18^th will act as a salve for the tap-dancing community.
