Dear Friend and supporter of CMDC:
As a friend of CMDC, you are aware of the quality dance instruction and life preparation that CMDC has offered for over 24 years! Dance promotes grace, poise, fitness, discipline and cognitive function. It improves ones quality of life, enriches the spirit and is simply joyful.

Chicago MultiCultural Dance Center is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization with a mission, vision and a plan.

Our Mission:  To be one of the city of Chicago’s premiere dance facilities which will not only offer the finest dance instruction, but also world-class performance opportunities for dancers of all disciplines regardless of race, ethnicity, socio–economic conditions or physical capability. 

Our Vision - In order to implement our mission,   We provide the highest quality dance instruction to recreational and pre-professional students from all over the Chicago Area
  • We identify and subsidize dancers of exceptional promise, particularly young men;
  • We offer financial assistance to students who otherwise would not be able to afford professional training;
  • We hone the skills and provide performance opportunities for our dancers through the Bryant Ballet Youth Professional Training Company and the CMDC Dance Teams; 
  • We provide entertaining and informative dance performances, many of which are interactive, to the delight of audiences.
Our Plan: To take the implementation of the mission and vision to the next level.  Despite increased operating and performance costs in today's tough economic climate, CMDC has remained on task and true to its mission. Highlights of this last year and evidence of our commitment to our mission include:
  • CMDC students from our Young Men's Scholarship program were invited to participate in the 2014 Youth America Grand Prix Finals
  • The Bryant Youth Professional Company was featured at the International Girl Day Celebration at Daley Plaza in October of 2014
  • CMDC Pre-Professional Training students performed with the Dance Theatre of Harlem at the Auditorium Theater in November of 2014
  • The Bryant Youth Professional Company is collaborating with the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra for a performance in March of 2015
