TASTE TEST 2026

Welcome! Thank you so much for taking the time to support SNACKPACK and Taste Buds’ third ever dance and film festival, Taste Test. 

Founded in 2024, Taste Test Dance and Film Festival is creatively used to suggest an immersive experience of the fusion between dance and film. Taste Test is more than just a showcase, it’s a love letter to the rich and diverse flavors of our dance community.

We want to spark connection, inspire creativity, and remind our community that dance (whether captured on film or performed live) has the power to move us in ways words cannot.

This festival isn’t just about watching dance; it’s about celebrating it, feeling it, tasting it, and experiencing its power in community both on stage and on the big screen.

We invite you to feast with us.

dISTANT LONGING

SNACKPACK explores the inevitable shifts we all face—within ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. From the turning of seasons to life’s unexpected pivots, change often arrives uninvited and unwelcome. We resist it. We fear it. This performance journeys through the raw, real stages of transformation—from denial to discovery, from hesitation to hope.
