The mission of the Wake Forest Dance Festival program is to bring the community together through the art of dance. The Festival strives to: enhance and nurture local dance students’ artistic education; offer unique opportunities for audiences to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for a variety of styles of dance; and increase cultural offerings available for residents and visitors to the Triangle area while making the Town of Wake Forest a destination for dance.
Wake Forest Dance Festival is directed by local resident and professional dancer, Mariya (Masha) Dashkina Maddux, former principal dancer with the famed Martha Graham Dance Company in New York.
