My Passion, Your Impact: Guest Artists & Companies

Larry Cashion, Board Director

My Goal: $5,000.00

In form and fashion I have been a part of Bailando from the Inaugural year in 2001. I have seen it grow and develop from an evening of dance performances in the park, to a week's long, international educational and performance event. While organizing the logistics for Bailando is a full time operation, the bulk of the work occurs in the month leading up to what we call "Bailando Week". The vetting of guest artists, companies and educator / performers, is both time consuming, challenging, and invigorating, as they comprise the most of our talent for Bailando's Performances, Breakouts and Educational Outreach. We have built professional relationships and made friends with our artists. Bailando, therefore, is both a professional and personal labor of love.  It requires safe and strategic planning to enroute, house and make-way for our professional educators and artists.  Beyond the work, this of course requires capital, and is where your continuing fiscal support is both appreciated and absolutely necessary in continuing and further developing the Bailando tradition.  We have several levels of continuing sponsorship opportunities, or a more narrow and individually focused giving suited for your choices. Please join us in financially supporting the Bailando International Dance Festival, in both educating and bringing world-class performance to the Coastal Bend for years to come.

Thank you for your consideration and contributions. If you have any questions or suggestions, please, REACH OUT!

Peace, Bless, and Be Well.
