Coming soon! Virtual Classes
We will begin offering virtual classes in May. Join us for Beginning Technique, 4:30-5:45pm or Intermediate/Advanced Technique, 6-7:30pm.

Follow us on Facebook to get notified of live streams!
We launched a matching gift campaign at the end of February and through generous donations through our website and Facebook, we were able to raise over $20,000!
Each gift was matched and truly has made double the impact. After the year we've all experienced, we feel 50 years is worthy of continued celebration!
To each of you who supports us financially, helped celebrate our milestone anniversary, and lifts us up in other ways, we are truly humbled and grateful. We would not be here without the support of our Rochester family.
We are extremely excited to announce that we will finally begin bringing the company back in April! 
GFD was fortunate to qualify for the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan to help our organization get back up and running. 
We are eligible for 8 weeks of payroll costs that will cover a portion of salaries and expenses. Though PPP is a huge relief, it is a small fraction of what it will cost in the coming year to be back to full capacity. We still need your help as your donations are critical to closing the gap in revenue left by COVID-19. 
COMING UP...SUMMER MOVEMENT INSTITUTE
Join us for 3 weeks of Fagan Technique, repertory and more!
The program invites all levels of dancers to take part in a three week intensive workshop, the only place where Fagan Technique is taught!

Check out a sneak peek of SMI's final performance from last year!


JULY 12 - 31

Registration will open in April!
Check back to garthfagan.org as more information will be shared soon!
