Class Xchange #2: Chacarera Simple Class & Contemporary Modern Class

The Queensboro Dance Festival launched in 2014 and is an annual summer season of public events and performances presenting only Queens-based cultural and contemporary dance companies. We tour the borough, bringing Queens dance to theaters, parks, plazas, libraries, and streets to serve the Queens public and visitors.  We strive to represent a slice of Queens dance, with the mission to strengthen the dance community in Queens and garner a greater appreciation for Queens dance.  Follow us in Instagram@queensborodancefestival, and visitwww.queensborodancefestival.queensborodancefestival.or.
