As a non-profit that has worked for decades collecting, preserving, and interpreting stories, music, dances, and costumes from remote distinct cultural communities, Dragon Dance has been invited and certified as advisors to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) committee for the preservation of intangible cultural heritage.
