CANVAS Dance Arts

Collaborate with your peers and instructors to create a small scale dance production. Dancers will explore various dance styles and characterization through immersive storytelling and group choreography. Small group and solo pieces give everyone a chance in the spotlight.

DANCEProduction meets for 90 minutes once a week. Unless invited by the instructor, grown-ups are asked to wait outside the dance studio.
