Sometimes nonprofits that aren’t performing super-humanitarian services (like housing, feeding, or counseling people in need) can get overlooked. This way of thinking parallels how music classes are sometimes viewed as nonessential in the school systems. However, we think nonprofits in the arts realm can really make a community a more enjoyable place to live, and can also make a huge impact in the school systems where they share their art.
For this reason, Cleveland City Dance Company really caught our eye. We especially admired their drive to start the organization where there wasn’t already an existing dance company:
“We feel we are unique to the Greater Cleveland area because we are serving an area that has been without a ballet company for 10 years. We are trying to fill that void in the Cleveland arts scene and we know it is important to do it right the first time.”
This year, their performance will be on June 11th and 12th. So if you’re in the Cleveland area, be sure to see their show!
