Spring CommUNITY Week
6 – 9PM
Dancers Unlimited (DU), a dance non-profit based in Hawai‘i and NYC, is kicking off May with their Spring CommUNITY Week that will celebrate and embrace the dance community here in New York City.
The week features BIPOC dance-makers as a nod toward unity during AAPI Heritage Month. The highlighted events include a Hula workshop with Kumu ʻAuliʻi Aweau from Hawaiʻi, Dance Battles, A Sustainable Fashion Show, and guest performances that will feature dancers from Hawai’i and New York as well as students from the Bronx’s Nuasin Next Generation Charter School. All events are donation-based with partial funding support from the Women’s Sports Foundation in partnership with Athleta and Alicia Keys.
All events are in-person and donation-based. RSVP is required online on our website’s Spring CommUNITY Week page, found here: https://www.dunyc-hi.com/communityweek
