Art is a reflection of life, so help us save ours! I am a senior student at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts in the theatre department and we are once again coming up on our annual March for the Arts campaign to raise funds for our performances, and opportunities to see shows and take field trips, arts fees, and more, because the DCPS system does not support or fund our arts program. We work hard every year to put on performances and showcase our craft for the entire Ellington community, so we’re asking that you support us in any way you can, so that we’re able to bring our talents to the stage properly. This year is even more special to us because it is the 50th anniversary of our beloved institution, so help us by showing up so we can show out!
March
for the Arts is the
Duke Ellington School of the Arts annual
Theatre Fundraiser.
Support Us!
In the Theatre Department, students aren't just taught how to act. They are taught how to create the stories they want to see. They are given the tools to shape the world around them with their art. Ellington relies on the generosity of parents and donors to ensure that our students receive the highest level of pre-professional training and performance opportunities. Donations enable them to create sets, craft costumes, power technical capabilities, hire additional instructors, and fund classes with Master Acting Teachers like the renowned Professor Vera Katz, Tony-nominated actor Corey Hawkins.
Celebrate With Us!
Welcome to the Artist’s Magical Dream World, where anything is possible! Where actors, dancers, singers, and painters create to the beat of their own drum in harmony! In this dream world, artists live by the theme, “Get your sparkle on and show the world where you belong.” This harmony falls flat when evil creeps its way into the Magical Dream World. The future of art rests in the hands of our daring artists who travel into the “real world” of Georgetown to find out “Where is the love?”
Join us for an interactive traveling show around Georgetown performed by the students at Duke Ellington School of the Arts. After the magical performance “Be our guest” in “a world of pure imagination,” where you can “jump, jump, go ahead and jump” on the moon bounce with Van Halen, “Just Dance” to the “Rock N Roll Music” with Lady Gaga and Chuck Berry and “get on the A train” for a ride around the block with Duke Ellington himself. Come dressed as your most eccentric and creative self and join us because “Love and imagination can change the world!”
