From RLCD Director…
“On behalf of The Royal Lao Classical dancers, I would like to thank everyone who donated, attended, and volunteered at the very first gala. A Night in Laos was definitely something to remember. We are extremely grateful for the outpour for support we received.

Our goal of preserving our heritage for generations to come and bringing awareness to Lao culture continues on because of you. There are not enough words to show our gratitude for your amazing support!

To our dancers, we are extremely proud of the growth you've shown through your practices and the relationships you are building with each other. We love being your safe space, your community you can escape to and get lost in your passion for our art. Our love for all of you is beyond words, we are insanely in awe of you and are here for you through all steps of life, where ever your journey takes you. We look forward to seeing you grow and one day take over for us!

To our dance parents, you have been amazing! Thank you for the opportunity to teach your children! We couldn't have done any of this with out you!

Below is a list of the amazing team that made this happen and then a photo of your lovey instructors who donate their time, every single weekend and extra nights to help teach. Some of our teachers don't have any children involved in fawn but still show up and give 1000% of their dedication to these dancers. Not only do the instructors spearhead the education of these dancers but they are the core of the entire organization! There is a list of volunteers and help below but the instructors were there every step of the way from practices to clean up- we couldn't do this without them!

Thank you for making A Night in Laos one for the books. Make sure you follow along on Instagram to see when our next event is!
