Mission:

Project Moshen(ProMo), a female based performing arts organization is fully dedicated to advocating for women through the art of dance and community outreach. ProMo fulfills this mission by providing inspiring live performances on women’s issues such as female empowerment, equality and mental health. ProMo works with other nonprofits to support causes such as Ovarian Cancer Awareness along with partnering with youth organizations to provide education to girls & women through dance classes and other initiatives. Project Moshen is always finding new ways to expand our presence in the community to help educate & inspire women, push female movements forward, and keep the arts alive through dance.

History of Project Moshen:

Founded in 2010, Project Moshen Dance Company entertains audiences of all ages & backgrounds with contemporary shows that intrigue, excite & captivate the recreational dance viewer, along with the seasoned dancer. Founder & Philadelphia native Kelli Moshen (B.F.A. University of the Arts) uses her athletic, industry influenced, intricate, & up-tempo choreography to keep the audience on the edge of its seat at all times. Project Moshen wants to give its audience a unique experience while creating conversations around the message of women empowerment along with relevant topics, issues & events.

Project Moshen Dance Company also works to give back and remain a pillar in the Philadelphia dance community by, regularly hosting professional dance classes and teaching at local studios, universities (such as Drexel, Villanova University & West Chester University), and all over the Philadelphia region. Project Moshen also provides a summer education program, CAMPS IN MOSHEN, where company dancers travel to teach dancers at overnight camps.

Project Moshen produces four shows a year, including its community based artist showcase, Artistry Unfolded, along with its annual ovarian cancer benefit event, EXCERPTS.
