July 21, 2015

This year's SWAMP DANCE FEST! will certainly end on a high note.

The performances will be held in the G-6 Studio of the Nadine McGuire Theatre and Dance Pavilion July 30-August 2.

“I wanted to create an experience that was life changing both for the students as well as for myself with this year’s SWAMP DANCE FEST!,” said Williams.
