Beirut Dance Project Fundraising Party at Dictateur

Support the Beirut Dance Project (professional training for underprivileged children) by attending the party and showing up dressed as what you dreamed to be.

Launched in November 2009 the project offers professional dance training to children living in difficult social and financial conditions.

Vocational training in dance is a luxury worldwide as it is difficult and expensive. In Lebanon there is no public institution dedicated to this kind of training.

Launched in November 2009 by Nada Kano, the Beirut Dance Project has two major goals: The first one is to grant access to the arts world to children who are living in difficult social and financial contexts. This channel would offer marginalized children an alternative way of overcoming their daily problems through the psychological and physical benefits linked to dance practice such as self-confidence, discipline, mental strength… as well as providing them with a mean to express themselves. The second main goal is to spot talents and offer young people a chance to achieve their dream of becoming dancers; thus creating a group of potential professional Lebanese dancers and therefore empowering the dance sector in Lebanon.
