With support from the California Arts Council, East Bay Center for the Preservation of Cultural Arts will continue to teach students the art of Ballet Folklorico (Mexican traditional dance). The grant will help pay the salaries of our dance instructors and pay for the rent to keep our dance academy open; thus allowing many Latinx low-income students in the community learn about the beautiful Mexican culture through the art of dance.
Our non-profit dance company, East Bay Center for the Preservation of Cultural Arts, is dedicated to preserve and present the beautiful Mexican culture through dance. Our dancers are given opportunities to perform at some of the Bay Area’s largest events and companies. Sponsor master instructors in a variety of performance art forms to increase the educational experience of students. Our goal is to showcase their talent across multiple stages and gain confidence on stage. We accomplish this by offering education and dance classes to children, teens, and adults, of all experience levels, and nationalities from our diverse Bay Area community.
