K-12 Residencies
Our grant-based dance residencies provide an arts-integrated & culturally exploratory curriculum for K-12 students across the metro and state of Minnesota. They are designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and confidence through dance while engaging new ways of learning for both students and partnering educators.
