	Mission
	Laboratory Company Dance, Inc., (Labco) represents a company of mature, developed, professional dancers and choreographers with a collective group philosophy living in Pittsburgh who are committed to the creation and presentation of contemporary dance. Labco was established as an initiative of Dance Alloy in 1996, and is now a non-profit organization in its own right. Labco's mission is to provide an umbrella for local dancers, choreographers, performance artists in order to promote the growth and potential of Pittsburgh's dance community. Labco also provides a home and venue for Pittsburgh's performance artists, teaching artists, visual artists, musicians and technical staff, and Labco works to employ local artists in the production of their own work.
	About the Company
	Labco members have come together from diverse backgrounds. Company members have self-produced and performed concerts in New York, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, California, and Europe. They recognize the importance of working collectively to share and create their art form in an environment in which it is increasingly difficult for the art of dance to survive. Labco members teach, create, and perform contemporary dance through various programs such as peer taught professional classes held at Dance Alloy studios, and by producing performances in traditional and alternative venues. Labco provides community out-reach programs at local community centers with classes in creative movement for families, networking techniques for artists, performance opportunities for local artists, informal showings of works, and collaborations with local artists. Labco produces performances biannually: a fall and spring concert.
