Welcome

Make Dreams Come True Collage is building a new state-of-the-art home, the largest facility and community campus of its kind in the region. It will break barriers and change lives. Opening in late 2020, it will stand as a beacon of hope for how a ballet company, and a community, can embrace all people while celebrating people of color. Will you join us? Watch Video
