ArtSparks Fund for The UA School of Dance
The ArtSparks Dance Fund was established In February 2023 as part of We Rise Together, the Campaign for The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ and was revised ln August 2023 to become the The ArtSparks Fund for The UA School of Dance. The revised fund allows the UA School of Dance to utilize funds for dance scholarships or as extra funding for the needs of UA's Dance Program.
Founded on the belief that arts play a vital role in fostering the creativity and self-confidence necessary to be productive citizens, ArtSparks classrooms encourage children to develop discipline, a standard of excellence, and a belief in themselves. These traits carry over into all aspects of their lives. Through in-school partnerships, residencies, workshops, and public performances, ArtSparks brings joyful dance and music programming to students with exceptional abilities and to students experiencing the art of dance for the first time.
ArtSparks provides access to high-quality dance programming and promotes the understanding of dance as an art form. Additionally, it challenges students of all ages and abilities to discover new heights of individual excellence through focused attention, creative exploration, and a sense of community.
The ArtSparks Fund for The UA School of Dance may be used to provide scholarship support to students enrolled In The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ School of Dance or to support operational and production costs of the UA School of Dance. When funds are used to provide scholarships, they may support one or more students enrolled in good standing in the UA School of Dance. Fund distributions and recipient selection will be made by the Director of the School of Dance, Theatre, and Arts Administration and dance faculty. Funds used to support the needs of UA's School of Dance will be at the discretion of the school's director.
