Heritage Works
At Heritage Works, we believe that cultural traditions provide rich resources for promoting personal and artistic excellence. We provide programs that promote skill development and cross-cultural understanding. From after school activities to community workshops to drum and dance troupes, our programs are for any one interested in cultural discovery.
Founded in December of 2000 as African Dance Works, we've worked from the start to preserve and showcase African heritage and illuminate relationships between American and African traditions. Our original focus was primarily dance and related art forms. We've since expanded our focus, and taken the name Heritage Works. With our new name comes a wider scope of cultural programming, which includes the traditions and the arts of Africa and the Diaspora.
