Join our free lunch-time panel discussion on heritage, respect, and artistic expression in belly dance.
Belly Dance crosses many cultures, generations, and communities, inspiring belly dancers throughout the world. While the world faces war, crisis and division in the very countries our dance originates from, how do we act as good stewards of the dance and honor the cultural roots, while balancing authentic ways to express ourselves as artists and even finding ways to use our art as activism on values we are passionate about? Come explore with us as we find ways to evolve in our practice through the eyes of our most experienced dancers.
Panel members to be announced soon.
Bring your own lunch or purchase a boxed lunch for $15.
