Choreography by both emerging and established dancemakers takes center stage in McCallum’s popular festival, now in its 21st year. Exciting original dances in a number of styles are performed by companies from across the nation and abroad with winners announced at the conclusion of each performance. Highlighting dance as an art form, this event always delivers an interesting mix of work by inventive artists.
