Thank you for joining us for National Dance Institute's 44th (Virtual) Annual Gala! We are excited to bring our friends and supporters together to share in the joy and work of NDI. This joyful and beloved Gala traditionally raises about 25% of NDI’s annual budget, and while we were not able to celebrate with you in person, we are so grateful you have chosen to support the work we will continue to do together throughout the year.
