Service Description

Bring your breakfast and join a conversation with Acia Gray, Artistic and Executive Director of Tapestry Dance Company. As the founder of the world’s only full-time professional dance company dedicated to rhythm tap, Acia has been a driving force behind Tapestry’s innovative legacy since 1989. She co-founded the company with ballet/jazz artist Deirdre Strand to establish a foundation for multi-form dance performance and education. With decades of experience navigating the evolving dance landscape, Acia offers valuable insight for dancers aspiring to create their own companies and expand opportunities in the art form. This is a pay-what-you-can event. All donations will go directly to Tapestry, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and are fully tax-deductible. Contributions can be made before or after the class via QR code, cash, or check.
