Healing Arts Ritual Community
DNAWORKS is dedicated to furthuring artistic expression and dialogue, focusing on issues of identity, culture, class, and heritage. We catalyze performance and action through the arts in the intersecting communitites in which we live and work. In our work, art = ritual = healing = community. We believe that this philosophy and practice lead to a more peaceful world.
