2009 Friends of Dance


Friends of Dance, founded in 2008, was established to encourage participation in and attendance of the various dance events presented by the Savannah Arts Academy Department of Dance and to provide financial support for the policies, projects and activities of the Department. Friends of Dance is the most important source of support for emerging young dance professionals within the SAA Department of Dance. Through the investments of our many Friends of Dance, the SAA Department of Dance nurtures and prepares talented young students for the professional world of dance.
