About this Event
Welcome to the daCi Utah Day of Dance!
The daCi Utah Day of Dance is a festival for individuals, families, creatively oriented dance studios, and school groups. Participants experience hands-on instruction in various breakout sessions. Then finish in creative sessions, creating new dance works under the direction of seasoned professionals, and performing together in a casual sharing showcase. Breakout and creative sessions are taught by highly qualified dance teaching artists and will serve approximately 300 participants, from babes in arms to grandparents.
Studio participants will also enjoy a morning session with lively technique classes and opportunities to interact with dancers from other like-minded studios. Studio groups are welcome to bring compositions or pieces to perform.
Join us for an unforgettable experience building community as we dance together, hand in hand!
