Dance is a creative tool that challenges students
to stay in school. Dedicated youth dancers learn
keen focus, creative problem solving, and the
value of persistence. At the 2016 Gala, Laguna
Dance Festival will proudly announce the launch
of its Youth Scholarship Program to assist
deserving young dance artists.
All proceeds directly support
Laguna Dance Festival’s mission to
promote the development of dance creation,
presentation and education, and to increase
public appreciation of the art form.
Your donation is tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.
