For Level 3 soloists
DPC Icon Program
The DPC Icon Program celebrates our standout Level 3 soloists and gives them real tools to grow. Icons are selected by our judges at each regional competition, and the recognition goes far beyond the stage: education, mentorship, and opportunities that help dancers take the next step toward a professional career.
