For over 47 years, the Modern American Dance Company (MADCO) has served as an integral organization in the St. Louis community. MADCO is the oldest dance company in the region, and has touched countless lives through innovative dance performances, as well as educational outreach and community programming for underserved populations.

After dedicating almost 50 years to community service and action, MADCO needs your help. The past five years have presented several serious challenges, most notably, the loss of our residency at the University of Missouri St. Louis (UMSL), high turnover in leadership members and staff, the loss of regional and nation-wide grant funding, and finally, COVID-19.

MADCO was able to survive these obstacles, but we are now facing the subsequent after-effects. We hope that the St. Louis community and the dance community at large will rally in support to prevent the closing of our doors.

We are seeking your help to raise $30,000 this spring during our "Campaign to Sustain." With your contribution, not only will we be able to pay our dancers a living wage, but we will be able to rebuild the foundation required to sustain the company for years to come. Without it, the company's nearly 50 year legacy is at stake.

Please help us preserve the longest-running dance company of the region, and help us sustain for years to come! Visit our website for more details and ways to support the Modern American Dance Company.
