Scholarship Opportunity
If you are currently an in-training pre-professional/professional dancer, and looking to attend all of the IWD events, we are giving out a handful of full festival scholarships. We know these events can be costly, but the experiences are invaluable - so we want to make them more accessible to our local dance community members.
