ferent types of disabled youth and adults, since 1977.
One Art's goals for "DDA" are to:
1) professionally train each participant under the supervision of Jose Martin,
formerly of The Joffrey Ballet, American Ballet Theatre and Pittsburgh
Ballet.
-2) establish a professionaldance company to a national artistic level sprouted
from The Hearing Impaired.
3) secure employment opportunities to this population within this art field.
Funding total from The Department of State Division of Cultural Affairs.........
........................................................$ 9 000.00
Request from The City of Miami ..........................$ 9 000.00
