NOW IS THE TIME

As we continue to experience war, environmental ruin, and deepening division around the world, we must not forget that the arts inspire, educate, innovate, uplift, and connect. They keep us moving forward. I have curated this monumental season as a celebratory reminder of this, and to bring more of us together around the depth of talent we have here at home.

Now is the time to celebrate.

Now is the time to gather around culture.

Now is the time to uplift the cultural technology created and inspired by the African Diaspora.

For this reason

It’s Festival Season

at dance Immersion.

We look forward to honouring this moment in time with you. There will never be another like it!
