Founded in 1969 by Arthur Mitchell and Karel Shook, Dance Theatre of Harlem was considered “one of ballet’s most exciting undertakings” (The New York Times, 1971). As the leading dance institution of unparalleled global acclaim, DTH’s mission is: To maintain a world-class school that trains young people in classical ballet and the allied arts; provide arts education, community outreach programs and positive role models for all; and present a ballet company of African-American and other racially diverse artists who perform the most demanding repertory at the highest level of quality.
Each component of Dance Theatre of Harlem carries a solid commitment towards enriching the lives of young people and adults around the world through the arts. For more information, see www.dancetheatreofharlem.org[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
