DNJFest ‘24 featured movement classes in Salsa, Bollywood, West African, and Capoeira. First Look Auditions offered college students and NJ professionals a platform to showcase their talent to NJ-based dance companies and non-union companies in the NYC-Metro area. High school students also had the opportunity to be noticed by NJ college and university dance programs in a supportive, low-pressure environment. The day culminated in a Hip Hop workshop led by Rennie Harris! Participants could also join sector-specific convenings to network and share resources.
