West Michigan Dance Festival gathers together our local dance community through a summer weekend of master classes, networking events, discussions, educational panels, and performance opportunities for dance artists. Our vision is for West Michigan to have a vibrant, thriving, and supportive dance community. Every year, professional and pre professional dancers will have the opportunity to take several master dance classes spanning many styles of dance. We offer a scholarship program for high school students to attend. Festival participants also have the opportunity to apply to perform at our community dance event and at our professional concert. Every year we expand our offerings to the dance community, including offering a community-welcome dance improvisation class and free tickets to our professional concert to dancers of all abilities.
We also host a WMDF Film Fest in the winter where dance film artists can submit their films to be adjudicated and chosen to be shown at our yearly film festival.
