National Dance Week Begins Today

Check out the activities list to see what might be going on where you live. There is a kick-off celebration in Union Square in downtown San Francisco starting at noon today. It's a free event and features performances by local dance groups.

I'm kind of in awe of this event. At least the level of organization of it where I live. The local company where my daughter takes ballet is participating by offering free classes on the weekend. How great is that? Now I can go check out that hip-hop class I've been meaning to take.

Seeing all this, begs the question - why isn't there a National Theater Week?
