Thank you for supporting PDE dancers and local community enrichment.  Your generosity expands the Company’s education programs and new works by taking the members to see nationally and internationally acclaimed dance companies and bringing guest dancers and choreographers to the Oregon coast to work directly with PDE dancers. 

Contributions directly support PDE’s continued commitment to bringing cultural enrichment to both the dance community and the community at large, through: 

• Exchange programs with other dance groups (national/international) 

• Lecture demonstrations in our schools 

• Commissioning guest choreographers, artists and dancers 

• Taking students to performances in other cities 

• PDE scholarships for PDE dancers to audition for schools of higher learning, conservatories and companies.

• Bringing performances to the stage at the Newport Performing Arts Center
