Outreach
We would like to thank
Target Corporation for its continued support of our outreach program.
Outreach activities are an important part of the North Carolina Dance
Festival. At each site we bring Festival artists into the community one
day ahead of scheduled performances to teach in the public schools, introducing
children to dance and the dance artists within the state. We also distribute
free tickets to interested students at each site, offering an experience
which we hope will spark their imagination and sow the seeds for the
audiences of the future.
