Cancellation

See Chicago Dance reserves the right to cancel distribution services if the minimum number of participants has not registered for each cycle of distribution during a given month. See Chicago Dance will always reserve cancellation as a last resort. In the unlikely event that we must cancel a cycle of distribution, all previously registered participants will receive a full refund or credit for a future distribution cycle.

“See Chicago Dance’s distribution service is a very useful tool that has helped me expand the reach of my marketing for upcoming performances and auditions.  It is the fastest and most efficient way for me to get print materials in front of the eyes of hundreds of dance advocates and potential audience members in the Chicago area.”
-Ashley Deran, Director of Project Bound Dance and Member of See Chicago Dance.
