With the vision of diversifying the artistic voices being presented in professional dance, growing opportunities for artists in the region, and attracting new audiences, Dance Canvas successfully accomplishes our mission through three program areas of service: Choreographer Career Development, Youth Outreach/Leadership, and Community Engagement. 

Since 2008, Dance Canvas has been an integral part of developing artistic opportunities for dancers in metro Atlanta. Through our Choreographer Career Development Initiative, we have provided employment, resources and presented over 100 new works by 126 emerging professional choreographers. We have featured over 300 professional dancers and performed for over 20,000 Atlanta audiences.
