Contact Quarterly is an international journal of dance, improvisation, performance, and contemporary movement arts.

Founded in 1975 as the Contact Newsletter, Contact Quarterly began as a forum for discussion of the emerging dance form, Contact Improvisation (CI). Serving as a meeting ground for a growing international network of dance improvisers, CQ quickly grew to include writings and interviews on postmodern and contemporary experimental dance, somatic movement practices, improvisational dance, mixed-abilities dance, teaching methods, creative process, and performance.

It ceased print publication with vol. 45, no. 1 (Winter/Spring, 2020). It continues its mission with two online publications: CQ Unbound and CQ Rolling Edition.

Contact Quarterly is seeking donations to begin the transition to a Resource-Archive Site,
