It all started a decade ago with an idea to build bridges within our dance community, to share resources and ideas, to bring everyone together to celebrate dance as one collective unit. Now here we are getting ready to kick off the Performing Arts Center’s new season with the 10th year of the Dance Collective!

Featuring original compositions by choreographers and dancers from Center Stage Dance Alliance, Island Dance Academy, Aerial Arts Hawaii, N2 Dance, UH Hilo’s Dance department, as well as other independently working choreographers and dancers.

This is a one night only show that is not to be missed. Get your tickets early as the Dance Collective shows sell out.

The proceeds from this event will continue to go toward providing dance opportunities for our island community and perpetuating this event.

*Note that some material may not be suitable for all audiences. Parental discretion is advised.
