include Artwork is valuable work; artists deserve a living wage. Stories, ideas, and experiences shared by marginalized people are essential to cultivating an equitable society Art makes life work living even in the hardest times. All people, regardless of socioeconomic status, should have access to art as both audience and creators. Dance is an essential part of the cultural landscape and, as one of the oldest art forms, an essential part of what it means to be human. Bodies hold stories, memories, and ancestral knowledge. Movement arts are a culturally necessary medium for sharing the stories and wisdom held in our bodies. Improvisation is an art form in and of itself. It makes space for dancers to showcase their own artistry beyond the choreography of directors. All bodies are beautiful. We honor the diversity of forms, expressions, and abilities. Humans are a natural part of the Earth's ecosystem and we all have a responsibility to work toward a future where we live in harmony with one another and the planet. This will only be possible through a combination of collective liberation and connection with the land.

Plan fundraisers and campaigns to meet revenue goals. These can include online pledge initiatives, sponsorships and sales of advertising, auctions, sales of goods, soliciting donations of goods and services, and running events that generate revenue. Create and maintain a database of potential, current, and past donors. Use this database to maintain relationships with donors to cultivate donor loyalty. Launch public marketing campaigns about both fundraising and also about the overall organization and its events and mission.
