Cleo Parker Robinson Dance
Cleo Parker Robinson Dance (CPRD) is a 54 year-old cultural arts institution. CPRD began under the auspices of the federal Model Cities initiative in 1970. In 1974, CPRD became a 501(c)(3) Not-for-Profit organization operating a dance school and a dance ensemble. In five decades, CPRD has developed into an internationally esteemed organization that operates beyond the traditional performing arts model. There are five pillars of the organization, namely, the CPRD Ensemble, CPRD Academy, CPRD Theatre & Amphitheatre, CPRD Education programs and CPRD Arts-in-Wellbeing initiatives. Working in concert, CPRD programs have created an oasis where a varied population - by gender, race, age and ethnicity - gather to study and appreciate a modern, cross-cultural approach to creative community and personal enrichment. Today, CPRD represents one of the largest cultural arts institutions in the Rocky Mountain region serving more than 60,000 people each year.
Cleo Parker Robinson Dance’s Mission
Cleo Parker Robinson Dance (CPRD) is an international, cross-cultural, dance-arts and educational institution rooted in African American traditions, and dedicated to excellence in providing instruction, performances and community programs for intergenerational students, artists and audiences.
