- Honoring the Past, Ensuring Our Future -
Description
Since its inception in 1949, Tanner Dance has brought the joy and positive influence of the arts into the lives of more than one million young people. Today, we remain committed to ensuring the integrity of our programming and maintaining the excellence of our leadership and our artistic faculty for future generations of young artists. The Tanner Dance Program serves more than 40,000 students annually at the University of Utah and in our community.
Donations will support investments in:
- Legacy - Remaining committed to Virginia Tanner's original mission for year to come - a unique vision of giving students the opportunity to share their own voices through the arts.
- Community - Creating an environment of belonging for children and adults of all ages to benefit from our outstanding programs.
- Leadership - Retaining our position as an internationally-recognized innovator in arts education.
Why are donations necessary?
Like any small arts organization, Tanner Dance is often at the behest of external forces that may affect our ability to operate in the future. The Legacy Campaign is dedicated to creating a robust operating endowment to ensure the long life and vibrant future of this unique organization and its programs. This means Tanner Dance will be able to retain outstanding faculty and musicians, produce high-caliber performances, and maintain excellent programming for years to come. You can join us in this effort today. A gift of any amount will make a difference in furthering this important work.
