It was an afternoon filled with dance, music, laughter and smiles at The Edmond Town Hall and The Lathrop School of Dance Studios this past Sunday. Sharing Healing Expressive Arts Strength – ‘a title whose acronym, SHES, shares that of Sandy Hook Elementary School. Local dance and the arts instructors have combined their efforts to bring Newtown families and children an afternoon of dance and music with events, demonstrations, and workshops of tap, hip hop, modern dance, performances and even origami workshops.’ (courtesy of The Newtown Bee) It was so great to see so many different types of performances all under the same roof. All of the proceeds from the benefit are going towards a memorial garden in cooperation with Newtown Parks and Recreation. Many thanks to The Lathrop School of Dance, Arthur Murray of Danbury, Dance Etc., Graceful Planet, Gray School of Dance, Newtown Centre of Classical Ballet, The Children’s Music Network, and a very special guest appearance by the Washington CT, based contemporary dance and performance art group Pilobolus for their wonderful performances. It was such a moving day, one filled with lots of sharing, healing, expressive arts, strength, and most importantly…. Love.
