Hello Family and Friends!

My name is Lively Pope Pinelli and I feel so grateful to have been accepted to the Alvin Ailey Summer Intensive Program for the third year in a row! I have been dancing pretty much my entire life. It has been through dance that I have found my passion and love for the arts and movement. Last year my mom did private funding to send me to the program, this year we are asking our community, family and friends to give us a little help. We are so fortunate to have so many people in our lives that love and support us on this journey.

It's very exciting for me this year, because I will be staying in the Fordham University Dorms with other dancers from around the world. The last two years have been transformative for me as a dancer, and as a growing young adult. I will attach a link to my video audition for you all to see the dancing that got me into the program.

We are appreciative for any help you are willing to provide!
