Dear All,
Summer has arrived along with changing rhythms – did you connect to dance this month?
In 2021, DanceMN developed a new vision: All are Connected to Dance in Minnesota.
This is such a significant statement that we want to set it as our core strategic goal: we want the people of Minnesota to feel connected to dance from their living rooms, the street, or on-stage.
Why do we care so much? “We love dance!”
DanceMN asks you to please help us reach our strategic goals! To those who have already made a contribution: Thank You! To those who have yet to donate: Now is the perfect time to consider the value DanceMN adds to your world!
In 2024, we released a survey to better understand our subscribers and held three engaging community conversations to help learn how we may better support our community. This includes developing a stronger social-media presence. If you use Facebook or Instagram, follow us and tag us on your dance endeavors: @DanceMN_News
We hope to widen the reach of our audience and to find ways to connect with people who haven’t used our free and un-curated services!
With these goals in mind, we turn to you to support DanceMN in our efforts. Your contribution is not just financial aid, but a catalyst that helps transform our vision statement into results-oriented action. Your support is essential in connecting to Minnesota dance: GiveMN.org/DanceMN.
If you prefer to contribute via check, please make your donation payable to Springboard for the Arts with DanceMN in the memo line. Send to Springboard for the Arts, DanceMN c/o Incubator, 262 University Ave W, St. Paul, MN 55103.
We all do better together!
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
DanceMN’s Steering Committee
