To generate financial support for our projects, Dope Girl Movement's Creative Director Kisha Vaughan regularly hosts her signature fundraiser BOOTIES & BOTTLES – an event that brings people together through dance by offering a night of joy, drinks & fun, where Kisha leads attendees in learning a hip hop dance routine at a local studio.
Kisha Vaughan, Dope Girl Movement Creative Director
Dope Girl Movement’s mission is to elevate and redefine perceptions of hip hop dance within Seattle’s cultural landscape. We create platforms to showcase the artistic essence of hip hop dance, celebrating its uniqueness while providing local hip hop dancers visibility and professional opportunities.
We honor the cultural significance of hip hop dance as a means of self expression and identity for marginalized urban populations, while also challenging the misconceptions that discredit the dance form's artistry and skill. Our diverse community of talented Black/African American, Asian/Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latino, and LGBTQIA+ hip hop dancers and choreographers are underrepresented in the local dance scene and deserve the same recognition, opportunities, and support as other dance genres in Seattle.
Our goal is to raise the art form’s profile by providing local hip hop dancers compensated experiences to perform in professional settings with comprehensive production support. We also advocate for fair wages to help hip hop dancers live, work, and thrive in our community.
Kisha Vaughan is originally from Biloxi, Mississippi, raised in Sacramento, California, and has been a dynamic force in Seattle's hip hop dance scene for over 20 years.

Your tax-deductible donation will directly support our future projects. Compensating our diverse squad of talented choreographers and dancers for their time and expertise is our top priority.
We are also seeking donations of items, services, gift cards, and packages to use for raffle prizes, VIP goody bags, and silent auctions for our upcoming BOOTIES & BOTTLES fundraising events. BOOTIES & BOTTLES is a joy-filled night of dancing, drinks, and fun. The highlight of each event features Dope Girl Movement's Creative Director, Kisha Vaughan, teaching the attendees a dope hip hop routine.
