A round of applause for all of our DANCEWORKS students on their beautiful performance last week! 👏✨

Since October, these students have come to FSBT each week to train, create, and grow through dance - building confidence, discipline, teamwork, and artistry.

A collaboration between FSBT and The Grand, DANCEWORKS is an outreach program serving elementary students across Wilmington, bringing dance education and enrichment opportunities directly to children and expanding access to the joy of dance. 🩰

A special thank you to the sponsors who make this program possible:
