Thank you to all symposium attendees, presenters, hosts, and sponsors for making Getting Closer to Dance a wonderful success. The convening sparked connections, ideas, and inspiration to the field of dance and movement-based practices. Please check back soon for highlights and photos from the symposium.

I came to this convening depleted, I left filled up.

D.S.

I feel so fed and inspired and sincerely hope to stay connected in meaningful ways.

O.G.

Just please keep doing this. Thank you.

So grateful and energized by my time shared.

L.G.

I am inspired and renewed. Your efforts will surely advance dance education and by extension dance presentation as we move forward.

C.J.
