The Italian Dance Connection, IDACOnyc, will return to NYC for its fifth anniversary season, Tuesday, May 21 through Friday, May 24, a platform that connects Italian dancers, choreographers and filmmakers with the international New York dance scene and artistic community. The theme of this year's IDACO Contemporary Dance and Film event is DIVER/CITY unity in diversity, an understanding that our differences enrich human interactions.

The fifth anniversary IDACOnyc program will open at the Italian Cultural Institute (686 Park Avenue) with a thematic roundtable & film screening on Tuesday, May 21 at 2pm, and an opening presentation and video screening with site specific performances at 6:30pm at the same location.
