The RVA Dance Awards Voting Committee is comprised of some of the city's most qualified dance professionals.  This small, hand selected group spans a wide range of dance platforms; Dogtown Dance Theatre, University of Richmond Arts Program, Virginia Commonwealth University Dance Program, dance company directors, established choreographers, and veteran professional dancers.  

​

Once the public has finished casting their votes for nominees, the Voting Committee will review all nominations within each category and select the RVA Dance Awards recipients based on those previous nominations.

​

The Voting Committee will meet together to review the nominations and any video footage of each nominee, but will select the recipient for each category separately and anonymously.
