For over 25 years, CAVE has been a refuge for immigrants and New Yorkers. LEIMAY, as cited in the book ‘Alternative Histories: New York Art Spaces from 1960-2010’ (published in 2012), is embedded in the aesthetic and social fabric of NYC as a site for experimentation for artists to innovate, perform, and exhibit. From 1996-2006, CAVE opened as a gallery/performance space in Brooklyn featuring 70 visual art, music and performance exhibitions w/300 artists. From 2003-2009, LEIMAY produced 4 sold-out editions of the New York Butoh Festival w/100 dancers (from Japan, Sweden, Germany, France, Colombia, & the US) for over 8000 audience members. Between 2001-2007, LEIMAY organized 50 butoh workshops attended by 800 dancers, and from 2008-2011, LEIMAY introduced the NY Butoh Kan Training Initiative, which led to the establishment of the LEIMAY LUDUS Training program. Since 2008, LUDUS has served 1500 dancers and hosted 45 teaching residencies by dance makers.
