Dear Friends & Families,

As many of you know, the Deborah Mason School of Dance and not-for-profit Cambridge Youth Dance Program are searching for a home. Our current facility at Fawcett Oil in North Cambridge is on the brink of redevelopment, and we are being forced to relocate for the sixth time in the studio's 37 year history.

There is a meeting on Monday, January 30th at 5:30pm in the Sullivan Chamber at Cambridge City Hall, and part of this meeting will be dedicated to discussing our future in this city. There will also be a portion where members of the public may speak about the items on the agenda, and we are reaching out to you, friends, families, current and past students and faculty, for your help. If you would like to speak at public comment, you may call the Office of the City Council on Monday, January 30th between 9am and 3pm at 617-349-4280 and ask to sign up to speak.

We hope to have a serious presence at the meeting. Please attend.

Sincerely, read more...

With this in mind, school officials are asking the Cambridge community for assistance in identifying foundations or organizations that could help the dance school and youth program apply for grants for programs and/or space. The school is also appealing to the community for any help or advice in locating and identifying spaces of between 4,000 and 6,000 square feet that would be available for occupancy by the school in January of 2012. read more...
