The MDC & NDEO Lifetime Achievement Award 

About the Award

The MDC Lifetime Achievement Award honors Michigan's notable dance dignitaries for their lifetime of distinguished service in the field of dance education. MDC's first award reception and concert gave tribute to sixteen recipients at the NDEO Conference in Lansing, Michigan October 23, 2004. This event also coincided with MDC's 10th Anniversary Celebration and photo exhibit titled 75 Years of Michigan Dance Education.
