One of the rites of passage for dancers in the city of Aurora’s dance program, Aurora Dance Arts, is the annual Spring Dance Recitals. Since dance is a performing art, recitals are one of the highlights of a dancer’s experience. Unfortunately, for the past two years, the fabulous dancers of Aurora Dance Arts have had to forego this special performance due to the pandemic. How they have missed the costumes, the choreography and the chance to shine under the bright stage lights as they perform for family and friends!

Aurora Dance Arts is elated to be able to revive this cherished tradition in 2022! Recital performances provide dancers with the opportunity to share what they have learned and to see their hard work from the entire year pay off. Costumes become treasured keepsakes, and recital pictures become the highlights of photo albums and scrapbooks. Recital time also instills a passion for the art of dancing/performing and encourages to dancers to continue their dance journey for many years to come…for some, even making it lifelong pursuit! It’s a very special time to be sure.

Aurora Dance Arts will be holding its Recital for the Pre Level (Ages 3-7), “Magical Moments,” on Saturday, June 4 at 3:30 p.m. and the Beg-Adv Level Recital for older students (Ages 7-19), “And The Beat Goes On,” will also take place on June 4 at 6:30 p.m.

All performances areheld at Aurora Central High School. Tickets went on sale on May 4. For questions or ticket information, please call the Dance Office at 303.326.8308 or visit AuroraGov.org/Dance.
