About

The Dr. Marcelo Cavazos Center for Visual and Performing Arts is proud to host contemp.co, the school's premiere dance company. Offered as a class period at the CVPA, contemp.co brings together advanced dancers from all six of Arlington ISD's high school campuses to collaborate and produce high-level contemporary and modern dance pieces. Dancers participating in contemp.co are challenged to perform and express themselves at a level that prepares them for the high expectations of a collegiate dance program. Contemp.co dancers have the opportunity to work with outside choreographers and college dance instructors throughout the year and serve as community ambassadors through a variety of performances that promote the fine arts in Arlington ISD.

contemp.co dancers performed at the district-wide convocation (held at AT&T stadium) in August to help kick off a great school year!
