AileyCamp Final Performances!

,

Our 2019 AileyCamp final performances are the perfect opportunity to show support for KCFAA and the students who have worked hard this summer! Join KCFAA as we celebrate our 35th Anniversary and experience the power of AileyCamp – now in its 31st season in Missouri and 19th in Kansas. Come out to see why your support matters.

AileyCamp began in Kansas City and has since been replicated in 10 cities across America. AileyCamp is a testament to Alvin Ailey’s commitment to “deliver dance back to the people”.

The program uses the art of dance to teach young students critical life skills, pro-social skills and healthy lifestyle choices. Each year, our staff members work with more than 200 middle school-age students (10-15), on both sides of the Stateline, to help them create the personal tools needed to improve self-discipline, critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Come out to one or both of the final performances and experience the Ailey magic!

2019 Summer Dance Final Performance

Please join us to celebrate the accomplishments of our Summer Dance students! KCFAA provides the 4-week Summer Dance intensive program in partnership with the Kansas City Public Schools for students in grades 9-12. The Summer Dance curriculum focuses on ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop dance technique classes, and yoga classes, in addition to dance repertory classes. Students have been participating in two technique classes daily, learning choreography all in anticipation for the final performance!
