What a night. On Saturday, August 1st, The Mayfair Honors brought nearly 70 years of Chicago dance history home, at the Obama Presidential Center, surrounded by the honorees, alumni, and community who built this legacy one class, one recital, one South Side kid at a time. We are overwhelmed, in the best way. To everyone who danced across that stage decades ago and walked back through the doors as an honoree, to every family who trusted Mayfair with their children, to every sponsor and donor who believed this night was worth making happen, thank you. This wasn’t just an event. It was a homecoming nearly 70 years in the making, and we will be feeling it for a lifetime.
