Many Hands = Short Work
Please volunteer for a job responsibility at our dance events hosted by the Center for Traditional Music and Dance. We need your assistance before and after the event to help lighten the load on our long-time volunteers who support country dancing in Phoenix and promote the vibrant scene of dancing in Phoenix.
Phoenix Traditional Music & Dance programs, a vital part of the center for traditional music and dance, are supported in part by the Arizona Commission on the Arts, which receives backing from the State of Arizona and the National Endowment for the Arts. This support is essential for promoting various forms of country dancing in Phoenix and celebrating the vibrant culture of dancing in Phoenix.
