Review for Fort Wayne Dance Collective Inc, Fort Wayne, IN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

THe Fort Wayne Dance Collective is an organization that reaches far beyond definition of the words which form its name. This community of dancers, movers, healers, and artists (in every definition) is creating an indelible mark on Fort Wayne and Northeast Indiana. Its diverse outreach programs touch the lives of our disabled people, our urban youth, our elderly, and our competitive dancers alike. Without this organization, there would be a serious gap in our culture as a city, and in our repertoire of platforms for expression. As a volunteer committee member for the Fort Wayne Dance Collective I have been able to see children's dreams come true, experience a rich-almost family like-interaction between students and staff, and been treated to some of the most beautiful dancing on earth through their Guest Artists Residency. I pretty much freakin' love the place because of the people, and the genuine interactions between them, and the produced because of this culture.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Give it a lot more money, a new (bigger, more designed) home, and help them tell their story better.
