About eba Programs
eba is dedicated to cultivating, promoting, and developing an understanding of and public
interest in the performing, visual and technological arts; through creation, performance, training, touring and idea sharing. Of equal importance, we endeavor to cultivate an understanding of the inherent creative potential within each of us and to integrate these creative aims with daily life.
eba began as an artist collective in 1973. From its simple beginnings, eba has grown into a multifaceted arts organization that is intrinsically woven into the artistic fabric of our Capital Region Community.
To accomplish our mission, five distinct programs presently operate under the eba umbrella:
• eba Center for Dance and Fitness • Kids Dancspace @ eba
Maude Baum and Company Dance Theatre • everything but anchovies Dance Theatre
eba is able to continue with the generous support of our community. Contributions are tax deductible as eba is a 501(c)(3) charity.
