The Next Decade of Dance Education

Since our founding in 2013, we have dedicated ourselves to transforming the lives of youth. As we continue teaching dance arts, providing cultural education, cultivating community partnerships, and collaborating with countless principals, arts liaisons, teachers, and parents, we pause to thank the many people, who've made this day possible. Your investment in FMC helped us provide the benefits of dance to over 50,000 students.
Thank you!

With your support, Forward Momentum Chicago continues to:

• Partner with 50 schools and organizations providing in-school/after-school programs

• Provide FREE Saturday classes throughout the year in two locations for over 100 students each semester

• Bring a conservatory style, 6-week summer dance camp to nearly 200 students each year

• Mentor high school students through a college and career readiness program, FMC Dance Collaborative, with After School Matters

• Perform in some of the city’s most notable dance presentations including, Chicago Black Dance Legacy at the Pritzker, Fresh Fest at Navy Pier, and Chicago Live!

Your generosity supports the dance education programs we'll offer for the next 10 years in communities with limited access to the arts.
