Demetrius Klein Dance Company, established in 1986, exists to both continue the legacy and repertoire of Demetrius Klein and also to promote and foster the work of choreographer, teacher, and performer Kristen Vencel. DKDC works in three distinct areas.

Creation and Performance - DKDC presents new choreography and performance works by Kristen Vencel and guest artists. These works seek to establish new artistic directions and circumstances. These works also seek to move outside the established boundaries of traditional dance performance.

Education and Outreach - DKDC works to inform the community through the use of traditional dance classes, residencies, and outreach. A specific emphasis will also be placed on using movement education in nontraditional methods and venues.

Collaborative Arts Presentation - DKDC seeks to work with other artists and arts groups in the collaborative and affordable presentation of original artworks.
