Have you ever wanted to experience what takes place long before the curtain goes up? Ever wondered about the creative process that goes unseen by most in the dance studio? The Northwest Dance Project offers its supporters the chance to experience a studio rehearsal with one of our guest artists, followed by a meet-and-greet reception with our artists and dancers. Our special Behind the Scenes events have been extremely popular and a highlight of The Northwest Dance Project's annual activities.
