The TANZ | MODERNE | TANZ e.V. association for contemporary dance in Chemnitz was founded in June 2019, after the international festival TANZ | MODERNE | TANZ had become an important part of the dance sector in the cultural life of the city of Chemnitz since 2015. In the same year, the association was awarded a three-year concept grant from the Cultural Foundation of the Free State of Saxony and was able to open the first TANZbüro in Chemnitz in June 2020 despite the pandemic. It sees itself as a meeting point, information and coordination center for all those interested in dance and dance professionals in Chemnitz and the region and has been funded by the City of Chemnitz’s cultural department since the concept funding ended. The TANZbüro networks various dance initiatives, organizes lectures, coordinates dance in public spaces and hosts the annual international festival TANZ | MODERNE | TANZ.
