Whitaker has traveled to Haiti\, Cuba\, Brazil\, France\, Germany\, Spain\, the Netherlands\, Belgium\, Ghana\, Jamaica\, Trinidad\, Tobago\, and Antigua to study\, perform\, and teach dance. Whitaker received an MFA in Dance from Hollins University\, a BA in Dance from San Francisco State University\, and attended The Ailey School. She was an Urban Bush Women Apprentice\, a Maggie Allesee Choreographic Fellow\, and an Isadora Duncan Award recipient. In 2019\, Whitaker’s company performed at ODC\, she received the NYSCA/NYFA Award in Choreography\, and completed her first residency at the Kennedy Center.  In 2021\, Whitaker’s choreography was featured in the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Virtual Dance Africa\, she completed a second residency at the Kennedy Center\, became a Gerbode Foundation Special Awards in the Arts Grant recipient\, and curatorial artist for Albany Symphony Orchestra and Brooklyn Children’s Museum.

In 2023\,  Adia was awarded a Brooklyn Arts Council Creative Equations Fund; Justice\, Equity\, Sustainability\, + Performing Arts Grant and a NEFA National Dance Project Production and Touring Grant. \nAbout The Road to Ose Tura & Following the Road to Ose Tura \n\n\n\nThe Road to Ose Tura | Efeya Sampson\nOn August 6\, 2020\, Efeya Ifadayo Olaberinjo Makala Sampson a Brooklyn native\, Ifa priestess\, dancer\, choreographer\, scholar\, educator\, folklorist\, and beloved member of Àṣẹ Dance Theater EAST (Adia’s Brooklyn based dance theater ensemble) transitioned into the ancestral realm. Before she made her transition\, she created the beginning of a dance film called The Road to Ose Tura. As Efeya got closer to transitioning\, she sent Whitaker and some members of her Brooklyn dance community all the videos of the movement she was dreaming into life and her rehearsal footage in a Google drive. In her human form\, she did not finish setting her work on dancers. This task has been passed along to Adia; (1) Set Efeya’s ancestral dance prayers on dancers\, and (2) Complete the dance film she began. In 2022\, Adia Tamar Whitaker\, Renee Kimberly Smith (an Executive Leader\, Strategist\, Cultural Curator\, Efeya’s spiritual family\, and Research/Development Partner for both The Road to Ose Tura and Following the Road to Ose Tura)\, and Photographer/Cinematographer Ralston R. Smith were able to complete the 2nd section of The Road to Ose Tura dance film. \nFollowing the Road to Ose Tura | Adia Tamar Whitaker \nFollowing The Road to Ose Tura is the landing pad/container for Whitaker’s personal reflections while building her friend’s film\, and navigating her own grief. It is Whitaker’s journey to express her story and place it in conversation with Efeya’s story. It’s the story of Adia being diagnosed with a far less life-threatening cancer and having excellent health insurance while supporting the health needs of a friend and artist fighting to stay alive with standard health insurance. It’s the story of Adia still being here on earth\, still dancing with Efeya in their new relationship. It’s the story of listening and not being listened to. The story of how Adia and so many others are different because of Efeya’s life and transition. The story of visible invisible people … Black women …  POC … Artists … Undocumented essential workers … Elders … And many more weathering\, living\, and dying. It is the story of Adia finding healing and speaking her truth through fully realizing her friend’s work and her own. \nFollowing the Road to Ose Tura | The Premiere | San Francisco\, CA | 2024 | Following the Road to Ose Tura is a series of four different 25-minute-long ritual dance theater performances/ceremonies. Each day features a different 25-minute-long performance ritual. Each ritual will be repeated four times on the day it is performed. Each 25-minute performance ritual will happen in four different locations. Two of the performance ritual locations will be outside in two visible invisible spaces. Two performance ritual locations will be inside in two visible invisible spaces. The entire series of performances will happen over four days. Creative projections and/or screenings of Efeya’s dance film be featured on each performance ritual day. \nFollowing the Road to Ose Tura | The Tour | 2025 – 2027 | After the premiere\, the performance structure of Following the Road to Ose Tura will need to be modified and adjusted for the concert stage. The presenters listed below have expressed an interest and commitment to booking Following the Road to Ose Tura. In addition\, they have also expressed an interest and commitment to booking Adia as a lecturer and to teach master classes in Afro-Haitian dance\, Contemporary\, Vernacular\, and Dunham Technique-based movement to their graduate students\, undergraduate student university dance ensembles\, and community based youth ensembles. \n\n\n\n\nThis event is a Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art. Community Programs are free engagements open to the public and/or in collaboration with a local community partner.

SUMMARY:From Love II: Intimacy Through the Lens of Incarceration
DESCRIPTION:From Love II: Intimacy Through the Lens of Incarceration explores sex and sexuality through erotic art\, research based articles\, poetry\, paintings\, photos\, objects\, and ephemera\, created by currently incarcerated artists and their loved ones.  \n“Intimacy is a human right. The carceral system prohibits people from exercising that right\, a basic human need\, a salve. Healing is stolen from us.” JW \nThe exhibit exposes conditions that deny intimacy\, and highlights how intimacy is reclaimed\, maintained or lost. It sheds light on the struggle to sustain intimate relationships on the outside\, while serving time inside a system that denies people of basic human rights\, destroys families\, and is designed to break both body and spirit.  \nWith this in mind\, From Love II reminds us that fantasy\, pleasure\, sex\, and intimacy\, continue to serve as radical acts of resistance and liberation. Join us in the fight! \nPlease note\, this exhibition explores themes\, imagery\, and language that may be considered sensitive or provocative. Viewer discretion is advised\, as the content may include explicit or challenging subjects. We encourage thoughtful engagement and respectful dialogue as you experience the artwork presented. Some portions of this exhibit may not be suitable for all audiences. \nArtwork is for sale\, with prices available upon request\, and proceeds going directly to the artists.

SUMMARY:Art\, Intuition & Intention: Conversation and Co-Creation with BAC Artist-in-Residence Ziedah Diata
DESCRIPTION:Art\, Intuition & Intention: Conversation and Co-Creation\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Ziedah Diata\nDate & Time: Saturday\, September 28\, 2024 2 – 4PM \n“Art\, Intuition & Intention: Conversation and Co-Creation with Artist\, Ziedah Diata” is an artist talk and guided art-making experience. Ziedah will share her views on “participatory art” as a social connector and as an activator-amplifier of the inner voice. She will guide participants through movement\, breath and visualization exercises for waking up and sustaining natural\, accessible intuition. Participants will create a personal\, interactive art piece for working with intuition and intention-setting at home.   \nThis experience is designed and intended for cross-generational connection and creation. Youth\, elders and everyone in between are welcome. Recommended for participants age 8 and up.   \nAbout Ziedah\nZiedah Diata is a Brooklyn\, New York-based artist\, facilitator\, and attorney. Since 2011\, Ziedah has created participatory art experiences independently and in collaboration with cultural organizers\, teachers\, poets\, healers and playwrights. Her work is inspired\, in part\, by the recurring themes that emerged in testimony during her 15 year career as an administrative law judge: harm\, repair\, empathy and transformation. In 2023\, Ziedah left her role as Chief Administrative Law Judge for the New York State Department of State. She now explores these same themes through facilitated art-making and storytelling experiences. In 2023\, Ziedah launched Bed-Stuy Drawn Together\, an intergenerational art-making and story-sharing project\, in collaboration with Stoop Stories and the Annual Stoops Art Crawl. Ziedah is a 2024 Laundromat Project Create Change Fellow. In addition to creating communal experiences\, she also designs personal participatory art pieces for reflection\, intention-setting and play. \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art. Community Programs are free engagements open to the public and/or in collaboration with a local community partner
