The Napa Valley Dance-A-Thon is an annual fundraising event hosted by NV Dance Company and the Vintage High School Dance Department. It is a student choreography showcase that will take place on 2/1/25 and 2/2/25 at the Napa Valley College Performing Arts Center. All NVDC students will participate in this event, with the exception of our Acro and Technique classes.
If you have a local business and would like to be featured at the event, please email NVDanceCo@gmail.com to discuss business sponsorship rates (tiers listed below) or basket donations. We are also seeking items for a silent auction and raffle. There will be prizes for the top students who receive the most pledges. All money raised will go to both NV Dance Company (non-profit (501c3)) and Vintage High School Dance Department. Collection of Pledges will start in December 2024. Tickets for the event will be sold separately. This is a HUGE fundraiser for the NVDC, as it supports our ability to continue to offer scholarships to kids in our community. With the money raised over the last three years and the money to be raised this year, we were able to build our new state of the art dance facility at 902 Enterprise Way. ALL of the money raised for NVDC in this event goes back to our students by continuing to enhance their dance education.
Each dancer will be provided with a Dance-A-Thon t-shirt and will wear black leggings for their regular class group routines, with the exception of Ballet. Ballet classes will wear their normal required class wear: Black leotard, pink tights and pink Ballet shoes. T-shirts are provided by NVDC, (We will not be ordering costumes for this event).
Dance A Thon and Pledgestar:

It’s fun, it’s easy, and people who use it typically raise twice as much as those who don’t!
