One of the Volcano Art Center activities for this year is the 12th Annual Spring Dance Contest on March 27, 2009 at 7:30 P.M. at Kilauea Military Camp Theater in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. This dance contest will be the venue for Big Island choreographers and dancers to reveal their new work.
This Dance Contest was created on 1993 in honor of the most influential figure in the Big Island contemporary dance world, Earnest Morgan, a dancer, choreographer, and educator. There will be previous choreographers and dancers as well as new choreographers and dancers that will be joining the contest.
When the contest is done there will be an open dialogue between the choreographers and audience members. This dialogue will give the choreographers a chance to explain to the audience their performance. While for the audience might be able to give new ideas for their next performance.
