The largest non-curated dance festival in North America is in danger of shutting down. The fringe Festival of Independent Dance Artists (fFIDA), which runs for two weeks every August, says that it needs to raise $20,000 by the end of October in order to avoid bankruptcy. Funding cuts and poorer-than-expected revenues at this summer’s fFIDA led to the cash crunch, which organizers are trying to alleviate with an e-mail campaign asking for 1,000 individuals to donate $20 apiece. So far, the campaign has raised $2000.
