Quadra Village Day Dance needs YOU!

I’ve been a supporter of Quadra Village Day since moving to the Hillside – Quadra neighbourhood in 2006, and a member of the entirely volunteer-run planning committee since 2008.  This year one of our community partners and long time supporters, Dance Victoria, is organizing a “flash-mob” style dance to be performed at Quadra Village Day on Saturday May 12th.

In 2011 Dance Victoria received municipal funding to create an Artist-in-Residency program, with the goal of further connecting local dance initiatives and community audiences.  The first recipient is Kathy Lang, and the first project is the Quadra Village Day Dance.

It’s a wonderful way for Dance Victoria to build community engagement and involvement with dance.  Ms Lang graduated from the dance program at Grant McEwen College in Calgary, and in the intervening years has been instrumental in creating collaborative projects between dancers, and reaching out to her community.

The Quadra Village Day planning committee is thrilled to add this new element to the line-up of festivities planned for the event.  We hope that you will get involved.
