A Dance in the Life of Asheville School

This year’s Spring Dance performance on Thursday, May 1, and Friday, May 2, at 7:15 PM offers a special tribute to life at Asheville School, an artistic reflection on the people, places, and history that move us together. Told through a day in the life on campus, the performance blurs the lines between past and present, inviting us to consider the shared experiences that connect us as a community.

Immediately following the Friday performance, the Visual & Performing Arts Department is hosting a reception on stage to meet the dancers and perhaps even try out some partner or solo dance styles from across time! We hope to see you there as we celebrate our school’s story through dance!
