In the spring of 2009, The Phffft! Dance Theatre Company will be hosting a benefit with the Delridge Neighborhood Development Association (DNDA), an affordable-housing non-profit dedicated to providing housing for the underserved Delridge community, to support its work together. The Phffft Dance Theatre Company has created several partnerships with key local community organizations designed to bring arts to underserved children and youth. Working with DNDA and The Youngstown Cutural Arts Center over the last few years, The Company has initiated a program, The Youth Dance Empowerment Project, which provides 8-12 weeks of training in different dance forms, theatre production and publicity and marketing to at risk youth ages 9-17. Delridge is one of the most severely despressed socioeconomic areas of Seattle. Please keep an eye out for this important event, and check back here for more information.
