Art Pratt Foundation of Old Mission Rotary presented a Grant to San Diego Dance Theater
On Tuesday, November 9th, the Art Pratt Foundation of Old Mission Rotary presented a grant of $5400 to San Diego Dance Theater. The funds will be used for much needed new chairs for their Lightbox Theater. The grant was accepted by Terry Wilson who is the Executive Artistic Director and by Lisa Strickland who is the President of the Board of Directors of the nonprofit performing arts organization located in the Arts District at Liberty Station.
San Diego Dance Theater is a modern dance company and school committed to providing a home to dancers of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures. Their mission is to provide access to professional training, performances and programming representing diversity of all kinds. They offer summer dance workshops, cross-border projects and performances.
Their signature event is the very popular crowd favorite, Trolley Dances™. San Diego Dance Theater has partnered with the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System for over 25 years and every fall, tour guides lead groups of audience members on and off the trolley to view original pieces of site-specific choreography.
Members of Old Mission Rotary were very impressed by Terry Wilson and Lisa Strickland and the San Diego Dance Theater. Old Mission Rotary is proud to support such a strong cultural and arts organization in our community.
