TAP LEGACY™ FOUNDATION

The Tap Legacy Foundation was founded by tap dancers Gregory Hines and Andrew Nemr. We have since garnered the support of living legends and have partnered with unique organizations to create a space for this oral tradition to thrive... Tap Legacy™ Foundation's mission is to preserve and advance the art of tap dance. We do this by designing programming that preserves, supports, and promotes the rich oral tradition of tap dance... Oral traditions are an expression of a society's identity. Any limit in access to the documented history of such traditions equals a limiting of access to the understanding of that society's own identity. By using new technologies we believe we can fulfill the mandate of access while still respecting the owners of rights to specific media. To that end, we hold these values…
