West Chester Dance Works (WCDW) is celebrating 43 years of fulfilling our mission: to uplift, nurture, and transform dancers and community through an accessible, inclusive dance experience.

WCDW is a 501(c)3 nonprofit arts organization operating to provide informed dance instruction, thoughtful community outreach programming, and inspirational performances to audiences of all ages. Our vision is for dance to become a vehicle for improved outlook, conversation, reconciliation, awareness, and unity between all people regardless of ethnicity, socio–economic background, religion, race or gender. Since the company’s inception in 1983, WCDW has been a minority-run, woman-owned business operating with a diverse leadership team that has provided opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to receive exposure to the many benefits of dance.

WCDW works to: increase healthy lifestyles through physical activity and education, create a link between artistic expression and advocacy (particularly for underserved youth), help improve self-esteem and peer-to-peer support, and hone leadership skills with a focus on team-building. Our five performing companies bring artistic enrichment to schools, hospitals, senior facilities/nursing homes, festivals, and a variety of other venues where people may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience dance. Each of our different performance groups has a specific focus, inviting dancers with a variety of interests and talents. The Diane Matthews School of Dance Arts is the resident studio of WCDW, the educational outreach arm providing opportunities for dancers and the public to receive exposure to quality dance instruction.
