Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the arts in our community and supporting the mission of the Iowa Dance Collective Foundation. The Gala brings together artists, donors, and supporters for a night filled with energy, creativity, generosity, and joy.

Guests will enjoy a special sneak peek performance at the new works being created for this season’s dancers of Malone Dance Theater, along with live music, food and drinks from beloved local partners, a raffle and auction, and opportunities to support accessible dance education across Fairfield, the region, and the state.

Supporting the Iowa Dance Collective Foundation directly strengthens the artistic heartbeat of our community. Every donation helps provide access to high-quality dance education, scholarships for deserving students, free community programs for young children, and transformative performance opportunities that uplift Fairfield and the entire region. Your generosity fuels creativity, empowers youth, and ensures that the arts continue to thrive for generations to come.

To preserve the atmosphere of this special evening, the gala will be an adults-only event.

The Iowa Dance Collective Foundation is a 501(c)(3) registered tax-exempt organization.
