The School for Classical & Contemporary Dance at TCU fosters and facilitates strategic partnerships with regional, national and international dance organizations and individuals. Throughout the year, ongoing opportunities are offered to the community and to the field, through master classes, workshops, lecture demonstrations, accreditation courses, conferences, and internships. This “extra-curricular” programming enhances and invigorates the teaching/learning environment for students, faculty, staff, and the community.  Check out the calendar for dates and information.
