Dance Parade has always been a supporter, as well as an advocate, for dance.”\nIf you want to dance in the parade, or get involved and volunteer with Dance Parade, please register here: https://danceparade.org/team-reg/\nLaunched in 2006, Dance Parade is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and sustaining dance artistry and cultivating supporters of the dance community. The organization offers collaborative opportunities among established and emerging artists through community engagement, scholarships, performance and special events.\nDance Parade and Festival is made possible in part with private support as well as public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, the New York State Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts.\nSave the date May 20, 2023 for the 17th Annual Dance Parade and DanceFest, more news coming soon!\nConnect Socially:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/danceparadenyc\nhttps://www.tiktok.com/@danceparadenyc\nhttps://www.instagram.com/danceparadenyc/\nhttps://twitter.com/DanceParadeNYC\nhttps://www.youtube.com/@DanceParade\n#danceparadenyc #beyondthezone\nLet’s dance!\n
