Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Beckles Dancing Company (BDC) has been a contributing leader in the Dallas-Fort Worth dance community, with an emphasis in the South Dallas area for over 28 years. For most of those years, we have been a community partner with the South Dallas Cultural Center (SDCC). We are housed in the facility and teach free dance classes, hold rehearsals and performances and have a shared office. We have successfully produced the South Dallas Dance Festival (SDDF) for over 20 years. This festival creates a space for local artists to display their works to audiences in our greater Dallas region. The SDDF also funds the South Dallas Dance Festival Scholarship through the Dance Council of North Texas. This season our BDC company doubled in size, we added to its staff an Assistant Artistic Director and Dance Captain. They work alongside the Artistic Director and Managing Director in the personal development and training of company dancers for the overall growth of the dance company.

ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0The organization experienced challenges with a previously dysfunctional Board of Directors, which resulted in a lapse in oversight and timely filing of the Form 990-EZ. Additionally, there was confusion regarding filing deadlines, as the board mistakenly believed an extension was automatic and misinterpreted the due date requirements. Since then, new directors have been appointed who are actively working to rectify the situation, implement stronger governance practices, and ensure all future filings are completed accurately and on time.
