一、宗旨 (Section 1: Mission)

舞蹈艺术是各个民族文化的重要组成部分，它是一个不需要语言就能够彼此沟通的文化艺术，它不仅仅能够真实地反映人类的社会生活，而且能够给人以美的享受。人们在练习舞蹈时，不仅仅得到艺术的熏陶，而且能够得到心灵的陶冶，提高人们的素质修养。

美中国际基金会在2011年推出“美中青少年文化艺术节”之后，引起巨大反响，获得各界的好评，我们在此基础上又推出了“华盛顿国际舞蹈大赛”，为热爱舞蹈艺术的人们， 提供一个展示天赋和才艺的舞台，以推动音乐舞蹈教学的交流与发展。

The art of dancing is a key part of almost every culture; it is a way of communicating without speaking. Dance is both a reflection of our real lives, and a way to enjoy art through creative movement. Dance builds an appreciation for all forms of art, and contributes to their growth as an individual. 

The Chinese-American Youth Culture Festival, held by America & China International Foundation (ACIF) since 2011, has been a perennial success. Therefore, ACIF has decided to launch another project this year, The Washington International Dance Competition (WIDC), which provides a platform for those, who are enamored with the art of dancing and are willing to express and perform their own programs, with the goal of promoting the exchange and development of art education.
