2020

We love Dancing into Dreamland. Last year (2019) was especially wonderful because it was our 10th year and we all celebrated our loyal guests and past performers. Thank you for the memories!!!

In the interest of our dancers’ and guests’ safety, we have chosen (this year only) to postpone our largest fundraiser: Dancing into Dreamland 2020.

Please know, this love affair with dancing, history and restoration has not been dampened by the pandemic. In fact, it has revitalized our commitment to building a loving and inclusive community. We intend to be a place for people to come together in unity and talk safely and openly about personal and social issues that affect not just our community, but all of the United States.

This unusual reprieve, brought on by the pandemic, has presented the board an opportunity to spend a year on building partnerships and strategic plans that will help us reach the above goals and more.

We hope you will share in this vision and find it in your heart to give in lieu of your usual ticket, table, or sponsorship.

• Matthew & Friends of Dreamland Board of Directors
