Under the leadership of Sherene Melania, the Presidio Performing Arts Foundation (PPAF) has a twenty-six year history of advancing justice through dance. PPAF’s performance company, Presidio Dance Theatre (PDT) highlights native artists and those from underrepresented cultures. As a female led organization, PDT's New Works Series focuses on stories of women’s empowerment and examining gender roles throughout the ages. PPAF’s community outreach program, DANCEOUT! provides equitable arts opportunities to historically underserved communities. In partnership with SFUSD and the YMCA, 280,000+ Bay Area students and families have benefitted from our programming, including our annual Children’s Day at the SF War Memorial Opera House.
