Since 2008, Education and Community Engagement (ECE) has given away hundreds of dance costumes, shoes and other varieties of dance accessories to Houston-area schools free of charge in our community sponsored event called Graceful Givings.
With the help of a group of volunteers who donate countless hours of their time, we give away tens of thousands of dollars of dance apparel annually. These generous donations are given to schools throughout Houston and benefit thousands of students each year.
Please register below to attend this year’s Graceful Givings. This event is for schools serving economically disadvantaged students. We ask that independent dance studios not attend.
