Children’s Dance Foundation (CDF) will host CDF Community Fest, a FREE event with activities and performances for the entire family to enjoy!  The event will be held Sunday, August 14th, 2-5pm at CDF’s Community Arts Center in Downtown Homewood.

The event is free and everyone is welcome!  Participation in all event activities is free.  At the event, family members will enjoy:

  • Interactive drumming with Get Rhythm’s John Scalici
  • Decorating tambourines in the Kids’ Craft Zone that they get to take home
  • Face painting by Magic City Face Art
  • Moonwalk located outdoors
  • Food and drinks by Crape Myrtle Café and Coca-Cola
  • Instructional dancing including silly dances, line dances, and dances throughout the decades

Dance performances by Irish, Flamenco, Belly Dance and Tap dance troupes will be featured throughout the day in CDF’s intimate 99-seat Studio Theatre.  Outside the theatre, families can place bids on gift certificates, birthday parties, performance tickets and more in a family fun silent auction to benefit CDF’s community programs.  During the course of the afternoon, everyone is invited to compete in a cupcake walk sponsored by Publix, hula hoop contest and a twist contest to win fun prizes.  Also, be sure to sign up for the door prizes to be given away several times during the event.

CDF is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to provide comprehensive dance education for all, enriching the spirit, enlivening the imagination and celebrating community.  CDF Community Fest was created to celebrate community with fun, participatory activities that highlight CDF’s mission.

CDF dances with students of all ages and abilities in our community arts center in Homewood and at more than 20 social service agencies, child care centers and schools throughout Birmingham. Our dance classes and performances inspire the child who is homeless, very young, disadvantaged or at-risk, and the child who has special needs. CDF provides these children with much needed opportunities to feed their imagination and strengthen their bodies and minds. CDF is a non-profit organization supported by generous corporations, foundations and individuals.

...for life, for learning, for all!
