The Philadelphia Community Tap Project

e for youths, and;
3) an annual city-wide outdoor celebration for National Tap Dance Day, which occurs on May 25 every year. The PCTP commits wholeheartedly to these goals:
1) We are committed to maintaining zero barriers to program entry and participation. We aim to offer entirely free programming. No prior experience is required to take part, and we guide participants of all ages to train and work together across a variety of experience levels.
2.) We are committed to pairing all tap educational and performance activities with live musical accompaniment. Participants learn tap as an instrument, and then demonstrate the connection between tap dance and live music on stage for audiences in Philadelphia.
3.) We are committed to building a strong tap dance community and a strong audience base in Philadelphia, where so much tap dance
history was made, and continues to be made. We actively choose to present tap dance and live music in a variety of neighborhoods and venues across the city.
4.) We are committed to training, supporting and mentoring all people in the project, such that they are inspired to create, innovate and share tap dance with others, long into the future.
