Scholarships offered for Dance/USA summer conference
Head to the ATL in June with help from South Arts
APPLICATION DEADLINE: Friday, March 31
The Dance/USA Conference—June 13-16 in Atlanta—is said to be “an invigorating gathering of approximately 400 dance professionals united by their interests in advancing dance and celebrating the joy of movement.”
Attendees get to honor leaders in the field, share and access new resources, and connect with peers through thought-provoking training and conversations. Together attendees discover innovative approaches to shared problems and strengthen relationships among fellow dance professionals.
Sounds worthwhile to The Hub!
