Highlights include Jennifer Clarke’s new work and a group dance and music improvisation at Scotiabank Dance Centre; Pop Up Dances at various locations around Granville Island; site specific work by Raven Spirit Dance Company in and around Coal Harbour Community Centre; classical East Indian dance performances with Mandala Arts and Culture at the Vancouver Public Library; and One Enchanted Evening, a South Pacific-themed fundraising event at Scotiabank Dance Centre.
