Goal
Support the AEHS Dance Program!
Your generous donation can help our dancers thrive by supporting key aspects of our program. Contributions will fund opportunities like attending professional performances at the Kennedy Center, the Maryland Public High School Dance Showcase, the Maryland Dance Alliance Festival, and the Regional and National High School Dance Festivals.
Donations will also help us bring in guest artists, such as Esperonto Bean for Popping and Locking workshops and Alana Hill to set repertoire in our classes. Additionally, your support will enable us to purchase essential dance apparel, including skin-toned tights and leotards, to reflect and celebrate the diversity of our talented student body at Einstein. The county does not provide dedicated funding for Dance programs, so we rely on ticket sales to our performances and donations from the Einstein community to cover these costs associated with our Dance program:
Transportation to State Dance Showcases: $2,400
Guest Artist: $2,000
Ballet Barre: $1,000
Individual cost for the trip to Nationals: $700
Portable Dance Mirror: $500 each
Costumes for an entire class: $600
Dance Equipment (blocks, straps, rollers, etc.), upkeep: $250
Dance Production costs (gaffers tape, lighting cables, gels, gobos, etc): $300
Performance needs (hair ties, hair nets, safety pins, skin-toned tape) : $100
Music (purchasing music rights, editing software, bluetooth): $75
Skin-toned dance apparel: $20-50
Thank you for championing the arts and helping our dancers shine!
