Living Fountain offers Special Performances, Concerts, Workshops, Lectures, Seminars, Residencies, and Cultural Exchanges.

 

Our organization is made of several teams of dancers and a core group of professional artists. These teams and artists are available for a variety of services to enhance your venture.   Auditions for the professional company are held annually. Youth performance opportunities are available to dancers ages six and older through the performance teams.   

Contact us to schedule the following for your organization:

 

As our schedule allows, the dance company is available to do mini-concerts or single pieces during regularly scheduled special events (Sunday Morning Church Services, Evening Mass, Arts Festivities, Corporate Functions, and Special Parties).  These can be used as previews for full-length concerts or stand alone performances.

 

Fee for a special event is based on the number of actual pieces performed.  If one number is to be performed at a corporate, liturgical, or arts special event, the minimum fee is $250 for our Senior Company and $200 for our Junior Company.  If more than one number is to be performed, the LFDC director will negotiate a fair price that covers company costs and is affordable to your group as our sponsor. 

A performance by Living Fountain is usually 90 minutes in length and includes a 15 minute intermission.  For an additional fee, we can collaborate with artists or musicians for customized experiences.  Ask if this is a current option.

 

There are real costs involved in presenting a concert with a high standard of excellence.  These costs include: Costuming, publicity materials, mailing, office supplies, storage rentals, travel rentals & expenses, sound and lighting costs, and honorarium for the hours of rehearsals accrued in a production.  Our budgeted expenses to produce a typical concert averages $800 for our Senior Company and $650 for our Junior Company.  The following are options a sponsor has of providing this amount.  We can help you determine which method works best for your event.

 

The $300 retainer fee is allocated to the company’s travel expenses for your event, and is considered a deposit towards the $800 Senior Company concert or $650 Junior Company budgeted expense.  Any costs for promotions, lodging, and meals for Living Fountain personnel is over and above the minimum need requirement, and is the responsibility of the sponsor.

 

 

Living Fountain is available to come in to public, charter, or private schools to provide assemblies.  Our group will compliment your curriculum, character teaching, or be art for art’s sake.

 

We understand that some schools will arrange grants to provide a dance experience and others will fund-raise.  The following are prices set forth which demonstrate our desire to be charitable and serve in educational settings.  A school assembly between 20 and 40 minutes in length is priced at $300 for our senior company and $250 for our junior company.

 

Workshops taught by Living Fountain staff are available for preschoolers through adults (trained and untrained dancers).  These can be scheduled in conjunction with a concert or by themselves as our calendar allows.  Workshops offered include: Modern Dance, Ballet, Improvisational Technique, Creative Worship, Hip-Hop, Princess Camp, The Elements, Choreography, and Jazz Dance. Lectures offered are: Creative Infusion, Arts and the Model of the Temple, Salt & Light, Discussions on the profound power of Art, Partnering Arts & Education, and Elemental Artspiration.  Optional: arts demonstration can be included for lectures.

 

Fee is $10 per student per class with a minimum of 15 students per class.  For every 10 students registered, the sponsor may include 1 scholarship student.  The sponsor is responsible for the cost of lodging and meals for LFDC personnel.  Master Classes can be booked separate from a concert booking.  Contact us for more information on this option.

 

One or two-day arts seminars include classes in dance and one other arts discipline.  These are customized to meet the specific needs of your group, and could include addition professional guest artists.  Other art forms can include: Music, Dramatic Arts, Poetic Arts, and Visual Arts.  A seminar can be offered with a concert or can stand alone as our calendar allows.

 

Cost is $40 per day, per participant.  If booked with a concert a minimum of 30 participants are required.  A minimum enrollment of 50 participants is required to book a seminar without a concert.  The sponsor is responsible for the cost of lodging and meals for LFDC personnel. 

 

If it is time to train and nurture the artists of your community, Living Fountain is a resource.  Our philosophy to NURTURE, EQUIP, and RELEASE will set a strong foundation for a long-lasting and effective arts program, school, or academy on your campus.

Because Living Fountain is devoted to using the arts for communicating from the inside-out, we will research a culture, prepare a production and travel.  It is only by connecting person to person that we communicate love and peace.  Artists have defined cultures.  Engaging Living Fountain in a cultural exchange will bring definition to you, your team, your community, and Living Fountain.  Everytime we go, we leave a piece of our heart.  Everytime we come home, we bring a piece of someone’s heart with us.
