The Atlantika Dance Board of Directors is a dedicated team of volunteers who provide leadership, governance, and strategic direction for the organization. Working alongside our staff, instructors, and community partners, the Board helps ensure Atlantika Dance remains a welcoming, sustainable, and inspiring place where people of all ages can experience the joy of dance.
Board members bring a diverse range of professional expertise, community connections, and a shared passion for the arts. They oversee organizational policies, financial stewardship, strategic planning, and fundraising initiatives while supporting Atlantika Dance’s mission to enrich the lives of children, youth, and our community by expanding access to dance, arts education, and inclusive cultural experiences.
Guided by our vision of a community where everyone has equitable access to the arts and the opportunity to learn, create, and thrive through dance, the Board is committed to removing barriers to participation, strengthening community partnerships, and ensuring Atlantika Dance continues to provide welcoming, inclusive opportunities that foster creativity, confidence, connection, and lifelong learning.
