What is Vogue Evolution<\/strong><\/em>?<\/p>\n

VE <\/em>is New York City\u2019s premier all-vogue dance company. Assembled in early 2008, Vogue Evolution aims to be in the forefront of bringing voguing and house\/ball culture to main stream media. Vogue Evolution comprises of some of New York\u2019s most respected and creative figures in the House\/Ballroom scene. The Historic House- Ball Culture in NYC has been around since the Harlem Renaissance and has since flourished influencing the country and now the world through main stream media. Vogue Evolution\u2019s mission is to both entertain and educate world audiences of the true story of the scene, a historic culture that for decades has influenced pop culture and media. \u201cThe House-Ballroom Scene\u201d is a culture of celebration, competition and unity, where house members from all over the country gather and compete at events called \u201cBalls\u201d, in different categories such as Face<\/em> (beauty), Runway<\/em> and the ever so popular Vogue<\/em>. Vogue Evolution began as the brain child of ballroom veteran Pony Zion who then collaborated with Dashawn Evisu and Michael Roberson of the agency P.O.C.C. and later with Sage Mugler of Bronx Community Pride Center. Vogue Evolution has since moved beyond just a dance company to become an envoy that stands committed to effectively changing the lives of the LGBT community through the art of dance. Vogue Evolution works to empower Black and Latino gay youth, while educating the community on HIV\/AIDS awareness, and encouraging the importance of getting tested. Vogue Evolution takes responsibility for the cultural evolution in and out of the \u201cballroom scene\u201d creating powerful results in the world.<\/p>\n
