Rooted in Movement: A Community Renaissance Fundraising Gala honors Black History Month and is Mounarath Powell Dance Theatre’s annual fundraiser. This special evening pays tribute to the Black artists and performers who paved the way for generations of artists today.

Our organization has long been committed to creating opportunities for young dancers, including providing scholarships to youth from underserved and marginalized communities. Proceeds raised from this event will support the continuation of these scholarship programs and help launch our building expansion goal—to create a full-sized theater that will sustain and grow our classes, rehearsals, and performances for years to come

To celebrate, we invite attendees to wear their best black and gold attire and come ready for an evening of fun and connection. The event will feature an open dance floor with a local singing artist, a silent auction, food and wine, a photo booth, raffle prizes, a tributary portrait gallery honoring Black artists, and performances by MPD’s pre-professional and professional companies.
