During the
2007-2008 season, the Belhaven dance department is thrilled to present
numerous dance concerts involving varied styles including classical
ballet to contemporary modern works. These unique and original dances
choreographed by inspired and creative members of our dance faculty,
seasoned guest artists and students studying dance choreography display
an array of artistic expressions. For this series, I invite you to our
spacious dance studio theatre located in the Bitsy Irby Visual Arts and
Dance Center and the Concert Hall located at the Center for the Arts.
Our dancers will offer an experience that will enrich your life.
