SAVE THE DATE!

Saturday, August 19, 2023
Auditorium Theatre

Dance for Life is a one-of-a-kind annual performance and benefit event that has showcased nearly 45 Chicago-based dance companies, as well as numerous choreographers, artists, and designers, throughout the past 31 years. The celebratory performance fuels The Dancers’ Fund and those who participate graciously donate their time, energy, and artistry.

In 2023, we return to the Auditorium Theatre to carry forth the founding principles of Dance for Life—compassion and service—while honoring the vibrancy of Chicago’s dance community. The celebratory performance will be followed by an after-party.
