Participating dancers will showcase dozens of dance genres - classical, contemporary, voguing, breaking, popping, salsa, and ethnic dance from Brazil, Bolivia, China, Japan, and more. 

They will make their way to Tompkins Square Park, where free performances and dance classes will be offered.   

A joyous celebration!!
