Additional details

Fundraiser including a silent auction both in-person and potentially on-line as well to be held on May 18, 2024 from 5:00 to 6:45pm, the purpose of which is to raise funds in order to hire a Director of Development. This position is needed to expand and continue our programming, mission and vision.

What we have in place
  • We currently have an event theme/concept, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have ideas, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,002 , allowing us to put much needed funds into paying staff and preparing for our future.

We need to raise money to hire a Development Director in order to fulfill our mission, expand our reach and continue our programming. The world of performing arts has changed dramatically since the COVID pandemic, and especially the world of professional dance.
