Reinventing the popular show, Dancing with the Stars, this spectacular fundraising event showcases local celebrities paired with professional dancers, all vying for the GRAND PRIZE by raising the most money!
The dance pairs learn their dance steps, hone their skills away from the limelight, and then come together to perform in a dance competition on the Davis Theatre stage. This gala evening is filled with a cocktail buffet, Dancing for the Arts performances, and an after-party where the audience and performers dance until midnight.

Dancing for the Arts History
In 2015, Mayor Scott Padgett brought down the house with his hip-hop performance. In 2016, Ann Schrader and Bill Dusch battled onstage for the top prize until the very last minute!! Ann became DFTA's Grand Champion. Bill walked away a winner too, as Concord's new mayor. In 2017, Joan Davis glided across the stage, collecting the top title in front of an adoring audience. In 2019, Dr. Mark Redding cinched the Grand Championship for his Weird-Science-themed dance routine. In the fifth season, Emily Davis broke the record by raising more money than any other dancer in Dancing for the Arts' five-year history and Jazmin Caldwell hypnotized the audience with an electrifying Men-In-Black performance on the Dancing for the Arts stage.
