摘要

本文目的在探討紐約的舞蹈節慶如何透過街頭展演促進舞蹈為街頭藝術表現形式，而且以這種形式教育大眾有機會體驗舞蹈和慶祝舞蹈的多樣性。研究方法採跨學科研究。其中包含史料考證，深度訪談，舞蹈美學與跨文化之相關文獻探討。研究過程探討社會文化背景，組織使命與主導人物，展演形式風格，探究紐約舞蹈巡遊如何在短短的四年間日益茁壯呈現傲人成果。研究結果指出他們的行列包容各種舞蹈形式和風格、主流或非主流派別；看懂或看不懂的大眾都願意加入。定點式的舞蹈展演侷限於固定的觀眾群，透過巡遊式的展演能更積極有效的推廣舞蹈教育給普羅大眾。舞蹈節慶也促使紐約市每年贊助各式各樣的舞蹈及製造一個全城市性的舞蹈遊行及舞蹈節。研究結論發現，給專業舞蹈與休閒舞蹈下標籤的傳統思維需面對時代新趨勢而修正論點。

This study was aimed to explore how New York City promoted dancing as a form of street artistic expression through the Dance Parade Festival and offered the public the educational opportunity to experience the diversity of dance and dance to celebrate. Interdisciplinary research methods, including historical research, in depth interviews, cross-cultural dance aesthetics and related literature, are utilized in this study. By the comprehensive examination on the social-cultural background, organizational mission, leading figures, and performance forms and styles of the Dance Parade, it is not surprised to find out why they have tremendous growth and achieved such many impressive results so far in the short four years. It is concluded that various dance forms and styles, mainstream or non-mainstream are presented in the parade, therefore, it can attract people no matter understand the dancing or not to join the parade for the fun. Theatre dance performances are limited to a fixed group of audience, while the parade-style performances can be more aggressive and effective in promotion of dance education to the public. The idea of dancing festival spurred the New York City to begin sponsoring any kind of dancing activities every year and held a citywide dancing parade festival. The results revealed that the traditional thinking to label dance as professional dance and recreational dance are needed to make rectification along with the new trend and new era.
