Arizona Dance Festival 2019 ~ Prescott

Desert Dance Theatre presents the Arizona Dance Festival 2019 Showcase at the Yavapai College Performing Arts Center (YCPAC) on Friday-Saturday, October 4-5, 2019 at 7:00pm.

The Arizona Dance Festival, now in its 19th year, will showcase an eclectic variety of choreography and dance performances from Arizona, the Southwest, and beyond. This unique setting will give audiences a taste of what is happening in Arizona’s dance scene. It is a perfect platform for dance companies to get exposure, promote their work, and to connect with others in the dance community. Each performance will showcase different dance artists including emerging artists as well as professional companies from all genres and styles of dance.

Five Master Classes will be offered by Company Members of ADF Participants from October 3-5, 2019 at the Yavapai College – Dance Studio (Building 15, Room 260).

A post-performance Q & A will be facilitated by the Arizona Dance Coalition directly after the show.

On Friday night only, there will be a VIP Patron / Dancer Cocktail Reception directly after post show Q&A. The $100 VIP Ticket includes: One Show Ticket, Two Free Drinks, Hors D’oeuvres catered by Natural Healing Garden, Observe One Master Class (Limited Seating Available). For $125, VIP Patron will receive show tickets for BOTH Friday and Saturday night performances in addition to the VIP Reception on Friday night.

This project was made possible, in part, through assistance from Yavapai College and the Yavapai College Performing Arts Center.
