The Bennington School of Dance/The American Dance Festival

I decided to research the Bennington School of Dance because it came up in the history of several of the people I have researched so far. It was created in Bennington Vermont in 1934 but was such a success that it spread to Connecticut College and Duke University.

Reflection
How is this program funded? Do they have advertising or does the word get out simply by word of mouth? I am thinking of how wonderful this has been, especially for dancers in the early thirties where there wasn't much support for modern dance. Next, I will research Jacobs Pillow.
