Who we are

A space for dance.
A place for connection.

Dance is more than movement. It is a language of creativity, a means of personal expression, and a powerful way to bring people together.

Based in Sarajevo, Centar za plesnu umjetnost-Venera is a nonprofit dance arts organization whose identity is rooted in artistic exploration, cultural appreciation, and community. We value the space where discipline meets imagination—and where individual expression becomes a shared experience.
