In 1982 the International Dance Committee of the UNESCO International Theatre Institute initiated International Dance Day which falls on April 29 of every year. Since 2005, Canadian Dance Assembly has released a message in conjunction with The UNESCO Message - highlighting the passion and excellence in dance within our own borders. In 2008 Dance Saskatchewan Inc. designated Natalie Krill as Saskatchewan's International Dance Day Spokesperson for the province of Saskatchewan. Natalie participated in a Question and Answer session via the Dance Saskatchewan Inc. Website with dancers from all across the province. DSI promoted International Dance Day events in Regina, Humboldt, Yorkton, Saskatoon, North Battleford, Prince Albert, Rose Valley, Foam Lake, Lanigan, Imperial, Davidson and Aberdeen. In 2009 Nico Archambault, So You Think You Can Dance Canada's winner, was the National representative for International Dance Day. Dance Saskatchewan Inc. helped to celebrate the day with a luncheon and workshop with Paul Andre Fortier and a workshop with Nico and other So You Think You Can Dance participants. We look forward to new events happening with International Dance Day in the future! |
