ArtSparks Virtual Performance
Our TNT/XD dancers have embodied the spirit of persistence and resilience this past year. From a year of learning and performing on Zoom, to a culminating outdoor film project, our team has stood by each other through one of the most challenging years and continues to commit themselves to the art of dance.
