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.
