We INSPIRE, INFORM, and EMPOWER our Flamenco Community.
“Flamenco Futures” is a leading model in asset building that combines college saving plans with financial education and real life experiences. We build hope for a better future by introducing and reinforcing the idea that postsecondary education and future economic well-being are achievable. In collaboration with each family, we open up a 529 College savings account for each child who participates in our dance classes and give incentives as students participate in performances. Required financial literacy workshops for youth and family members throughout the year cover a range of topics from home ownership to entrepreneurship, personal budgeting to college preparation. In addition, we offer competitive summer apprenticeships for teenage dancers to gain real-life experience in working inside the arts as a performer, educator, and director.
