DANCE REVELS MOVING HISTORY is committed to performing the untold stories of our diverse ancestors through the dance, story, and live music of Europe and America's past (1400-1920).
Dance Revels Moving History is a fiscal year 2010 recipient of a Folk and Traditional Arts Grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board and a Community Arts Grant from Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. This activity is funded, in part, by the Minnesota arts and cultural heritage fund as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.
