Jacob's Pillow is a National Historic Landmark and National Medal of Arts recipient, home to America's longest-running international dance festival. It is a beautiful dance venue in a wooded area, a tranquil and inspiring cultural centre giving space and support to a variety of performing dancers. The complex of historical buildings is surrounded by beautiful, beautifully maintained nature.
It is a very inspirational venue for the artistic palate, featuring many performances and workshops. Attendees enjoy ticketed performances, as well as free events like community days and pillow talks. The outdoor stage is a delight. Reviews note wonderful, joyful performances where dancers work well together, glide across the stage, and clearly put 110% into their performance, leaving audiences in awe and beyond happy. While specific tastes vary, many are lifelong fans and converts who look forward to attending for years. Parking is plentiful.
The performances are always wonderful. I so enjoy the beautiful campus

I saw the San Francisco Ballet and the Hubbard Street Dance group, both wonder full performances. The donor get together was nice as I had a nice conversation with Pamela Tatge. I plan to contribute a higher amount next year along with attending some performances of course.

Spectacular venue, delightful staff, and amazing talent! The Community Day hosted there was great for all ages. We’ll be back.
