“The moment in between what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place”.
-Barbara De Angelis
Through S.P.A.R.K. I want to raise scholarships that will encourage more participation in extracurricular dance programs while advocating for an increase in federal and state funding for the arts in our schools so that children who excel creatively will receive the recognition they deserve and communities across our country will have the knowledge they need to ignite the arts!
When you give a child access to a creative outlet like dance lessons, you’re not just giving them an opportunity to express themselves, you’re also improving their physical health, enhancing emotional development, encouraging socialization, and improving their cognitive development.
