Deborah Manson
School of Dance relies on support to ensure the enrichment of artistic
education and youth development. By joining them, you will be sharing
ownership of the issues that concern our whole community, and sharing
the road to making the community a better place to live. The road to our
community's future, an engaged community, is the only road to
significant and lasting change.

The Youth Program provides
access to dance by granting financial assistance, engaging in community
outreach activities, and acting as an advocate for dance education.
