CULTURAL ENRICHMENT

Understanding the special role the arts play in building strong communities, our mission is to engage, connect, and strengthen communities through collaboration and educational outreach. Our goal is the pursuit of choral excellence that engages audiences, and shares and celebrates the human experience through music. OUR VISION: ​ Our vision is a world in which communities support, collaborate, and care for everyone while respecting each person's individuality. Inspired by diversity, we aspire to be an accepting family of inclusiveness, characterized by a membership comprised of musicians with a broad range of interests, thoughts, and beliefs who are individually committed to artistic excellence.

DanceWorks Chicago is committed to build a foundation for the individual artistic growth of dancers and choreographers, providing a laboratory from which early career artists propel themselves and the art form to a new level through training, collaboration, mentorship, and performance. Our commitment is to “Community” not “Company,” the Participatory, rather than the Proprietary. And having chosen this route, we are building a more robust dance community. Led with integrity by Co-founder and Artistic Director Julie Nakagawa, DanceWorks Chicago fills a niche in the dance ecosystem investing in and shining a spotlight on the individual artists. Dancers are encouraged to explore their technical capability as well as their artistic curiosity in an individualized and deeply personal approach with the goal of nurturing passionate, articulate artists able to make meaningful contributions to the art form. Choreographically, we look to uncover new voices while also embracing opportunities to connect with more established choreographers providing mentorship and perspective for all involved. Welcoming the public to engage with the DanceWorks family to build context around the work of art is both our pleasure and our duty as a good dance citizen.

To provide community students with musical exposure, experience and instruction to help develop well rounded students and citizens, thereby uplifting the community at-large
