A Remembrance
We celebrate the life of Al Heyward, who passed away March 31, 2020. As a co-chair of the The New York Committee to Celebrate National Tap Dance Day from its beginning, Al dedicated untold hours to the Committee’s efforts to produce Tap Extravaganza® and promote the art of tap dancing.
We will take his vision on with us and thank him for the guidance, love and dedication he has given us.
TapEx 2021 will be celebrated online via Zoom on Sunday, May 30, 2021, 7 – 8:30 pm. We will be honoring 2020 Flo-Bert Award recipients, Ayodele Casel and DeWitt Fleming, Jr. Additionally we will be honoring Al Heyward. Please stay tuned for more information.
Donations to the Committee can be made through the NY Foundation of the Arts
