Mayfair Academy of Fine Arts

Mayfair Academy of Fine Arts

The Mayfair Academy of Fine Arts is a dance school located on the south side of Chicago, Illinois. This dance school was founded in 1957 by tap dancer Tommy Sutton. It was created by Sutton to give young black children in the area the same opportunities that white children in that time period had. Mayfair's enrollment has increased from about 90 kids enrolled in classes at Mayfair to over 800 kids enrolled in classes at Mayfair. Mayfair has been operating for over 50 years now.
