Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We are reaching out to seek your generous support for our Dance and Theatre program through the materials requested on DonorsChoose. Our program is currently in need of resources for two important initiatives: our upcoming Theatre Production of “Trojan Women” and our Dance Anatomy and Conditioning curriculum.

Theatre Production: Trojan Women

As we prepare to bring this classic Greek play to life in March, our students have been diligently rehearsing and honing their craft. To truly illuminate their performance and embody the essence of ancient Greece, we need costumes and production materials. These toga costumes and leggings will enhance the visual storytelling and make for a memorable experience for both the cast and the audience. Your support will help us create a spectacular representation of this timeless tale.

Dance Anatomy and Conditioning

In addition to our theatre production, our dance students are focused on understanding their bodies and enhancing their performance capabilities through the study of anatomy and kinesiology. We are in need of dumbbells and resistance bands that will help our dance staff teach students about strength, health, and injury prevention. By equipping our dancers with the knowledge and resources they need, we can ensure they perform at their absolute best.

Your contributions will not only enhance our productions and curriculum, but, also empower our students to grow as artists and individuals. Every little bit helps, and we are incredibly grateful for any support you can provide.

Thank you for considering a contribution to our Dance and Theatre program. Together, we can make a significant impact on our students' artistic journey!
