In June Ile Ife Films documented the performance of Obatala by the Arthur Hall Afro-American Dance Ensemble at the Odunde Festival in Philadelphia.

In July the company documented portions of Arthur's residency at the Heartwood School of Art in Kennebunkport.

In August and early September, with the support of a grant from the Maine Arts Commission to Bruce Williams for Ile Ife Phila Pa, the company produced and fully documented Ile Ife Philadelphia Maine, a series of dance concerts in memory of Arthur's mother, Ms Sallie Hall.

In October Bruce edited the 3rd edition of Arthur Hall's Obatala, incorporating footage from the Odunde Festival and Ile Ife Philadelphia Maine with the 1993 reunion performance.

In November Bruce helped Dorothy Ahlgren of the University of New Hampshire document her production of Obatala Ashe, in memory of Arthur's drummer Adam Perry Smith. The documentation will be added to the Arthur Hall Collection eventually.

At the end of November the board resolved to help establish the Arthur Hall International Dance Center in Rockland, Maine. To benefit necessary renovations to the center, the company produced and fully documented The Rhythm of Life dance concert at year's end.

Also at year's end the company received a Corporate Community Development grant from CoreStates Bank in Philadelphia with the Greater Philadelphia Urban Affairs Coalition acting as fiscal agent. Ahada Stanford prepared the narrative and the budget for the proposal. The grant has allowed the company to continue preproduction of Ile Ife Phila Pa and to augment the Arthur Hall Collection during the early months of 1996.
