Founded in 1989 by four visionary dancers/choreographers, River North Dance Chicago (RNDC) has established itself as one of Chicago’s leading dance companies, receiving critical acclaim on a national and international level.
Building upon the success of their 21st anniversary season, Artistic Director Frank Chaves and Executive Director Gail Kalver approached Steve Ryan of VSA Partners with the opportunity to create a new identity that would embody their dynamic, unique flavor of jazz-based contemporary dance. The result is a brand expression that is differentiating for the company within local, national and international arts communities and is representative of the sleek, confident, and athletic performances for which RNDC has become recognized.
