We love it when our students capture special moments from our Golden Glow concert. Here dancer Bellarose Murie beautifully immortalized the gorgeous images in Professors Hayley Meier and Jason Hortin ‘s work “The Alchemy of Self.”

UNLV dancers shine is last night’s performance of Golden Glow at the Judy Bayley Theatre.

What our audience in attendance last night are saying:

“Tonight’s mind-bending performance highlighted not only the talent of the UNLV dance program but also delivered inspiring social commentary through dance.”

Catch these spirited dancers at Golden Glow at the Judy Bayley Theatre on the UNLV campus this weekend Oct. 2 & 3. Link for tickets in bio.

One performance down. Eight more to go.

One of the great privileges of this week is sharing Erick Hawkins’ Classic Kite Tails on the National Mall during America’s 250th celebration.

Created in 1972, Classic Kite Tails captures something timeless about the American imagination: wide horizons, open skies, movement carried by possibility, and the belief that freedom begins with space—space to dream, to create, to become.

It reminds us that America is at its best when its landscapes are as expansive as its spirit, when possibility stretches beyond the horizon, and when all are welcome to enter the dance.

Today those ideas took flight in the heart of our nation’s capital.

If you’re watching national news over the next four days, you may catch a glimpse of UNLV Dance performing on the National Endowment for the Arts Legacy Stage at the Great American State Fair. Thanks to the National Endowment f/t Arts for inviting us to perform.

This is who we are.
This is what we do.

We are UNLV Dance.
