SpectorDance Fundraising

SpectorDance is thrilled to be presenting Ocean Trilogy, a multidisciplinary performance and educational program based on a dance-science partnership between SpectorDance and the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI). Ocean Trilogy is an original piece that weaves together rap and classical music, urban and contemporary dance, visual images, and spoken word to explore the challenges confronting our ocean and hopeful possibilities from cutting-edge ocean science research. Along with the performance of Ocean Trilogy, we are providing associated educational programs tailored to each venue. Including a science lecture with an MBARI scientist, and/or a movement workshop with a SpectorDance Company dancer.  Ocean Trilogy aims to inspire the next generation of ocean stewards, and to demonstrate that dance can expand awareness of this critical issue in a way that reaches people's hearts.

In 2018/2019, SpectorDance is scheduled to perform Ocean Trilogy at Monterey County Free Libraries (July), Stanton Theater (September), Greenfield High School (October), Future Citizens Foundation (October), Hartnell College (November), Stanford University (April), Sunset Center (April), and we are in dialogue with the Smithsonian Natural History Museum in Washington, D.C (June).

We anticipate that Ocean Trilogy will reach over 5,000 underserved youth this year.  Not only will students experience live performance, but they will also have an exposure to top-notch, cutting-edge science.

The cost of each ticket is $10 per attendee.  Therefore, your donation of $100 will sponsor 10 youth or a donation of $5,000 will sponsor 500 youth.   Every donation, large or small, makes a difference.
