About
A dance festival to support dance on the island
Featuring a mix of genres from ballet to tap to street dance, the Nantucket Dance Festival offers an expansive view of different expressions of the artform, providing the audience with insight into the different ways emotions can be expressed through movement. The week-long Festival, produced by Nantucket Dance Theater, directly supports young people on the island through ongoing dance education while also connecting them with the artists that inspire them.
