International Dance Day!
This annual event is a joyful celebration of what we all love – Dance! This year we joined forces with a sister city Oslo, Norway and exchanged IDDay celebration letters. It was lovely to share our day with another dance event half a world away!
The pictures from our event will be posted in the Free Flow Gallery on the website.
