Premiering at the Gold Coast Dance Festival
Dance For Peace will continue into a 2025 video highlighting dancers all over Long Island
** WE ARE SEEKING 300+ DANCERS **
We invite YOU to join us in our inaugural Dance For Peace participatory event.
Directed by Nicole Loizides, Choreographer of Doves, Symbol of Peace seen in the Sochi Olympic Opening Ceremonies
We are searching for 300+ dancers to create Long Island's very first dance installation bringing together both amateurs and professionals for an inspiring and uplifting mass choreography art installation.
It's time to lift one another up... celebrate and dance together.
Rehearsals are flexible, some in person and some via zoom. Videos will be shared regularly with those that are registered.
All dancers and studios will be acknowledged.
There is a nominal one-time registration fee of $20 per dancer to help cover production costs and part of what will be an amazing video highlighting Long Island's dancers and the shorelines that connect us.
