Explore Edges of Ailey and join Whitney Educators to create your own work of art inspired by dance! Alvin Ailey (1931–1989) was a dancer and choreographer who once described dance as “movement full of images”—an art form alive with action, beauty, and storytelling. He drew inspiration from many sources, including music, the strength of Black women, and celebrations of Black culture and liberation movements.
