We’re horrible dancers, but we love the art of the dance. We love all different types, from ballroom to pop-and-lock to postmodern interpretive combinations of pop, lock and ballroom. We also love attending dance performances. The only problem with your average, everyday dance spectacular—or “dance-tacular”—is that they usually focus on just one type of dance, rarely doing anything to foster the popularity and exposure of dance as an art form. We wish there was an event—a festival, if you will—that would gather together 1,000 performers from every style of dance to help increase the visibility and accessibility of dance.

The Dance Council and the Dance Community of North Texas (in a press release that reiterates verbatim the previous description of our fantasy dance festival) proudly presents the 2007 Dance for the Planet Festival from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at Annette Strauss Artist Square in Samuell Grand Park, 6200 E. Grand Ave. Admission is free. Visit thedancecouncil.org.
Sat., April 21, 12-5 p.m.; Sun., April 22, 12-5 p.m.
