Over 1,000 participants have danced with DANCEWEEKENDER, showcasing the diversity of dance and the breadth of community interest. DANCEWEEKENDER is built on Tasdance’s ethos of collaboration, access and dance-making for everyone. It’s a welcoming space to learn, share, move and connect through dance.
