Borealis Dance Theatre

Support programming that creates a difference in our arts communities! Your gift this giving season helps high school students from around the Twin Cities experience Minnesota High School Dance Festival (MHSDF). Your gift goes directly to fund this program by providing financial support for our teachers by offsetting the cost of admission for attending students making this experience more accessible for all. 

MHSDF fosters a space to honor the work of public high school students while giving presence and value to diversity in dance practices and performance.

Celebrating our third year, this annual conference brings students from all over Minnesota for a day of masterclasses and performing.  Students showcase their work in a supportive community of dancers, educators, and industry professionals. MHSDF is a safe space where students, teachers, and professionals become resources for one another by sharing knowledge, experience, and artistic practice for holistic growth of young artists. 

We find it important to create thoughtful programming for our community as well as provide opportunities to educate the next generation of dance artists and leaders. Your gift ensures that we are able to collaborate with our community to create thought provoking art as we take steps towards positive change together. You can help today!

Here is the line up for this year's festival!
