Dance Alumni Photo Archive
Decades ago, Associate Professor Ted T. Kivitt of the Purchase College Conservatory of Dance embarked on a passion project: capturing striking photographs of the Company’s ballet students to create a stunning visual archive chronicling the evolution of dance. Now, in 2025, these timeless images are being shared publicly, offering alumni a nostalgic journey and a captivating tribute to the artistry and grace that have defined generations of dancers at Purchase.
