VIP Team Lead Duane Cyrus involved in Juneteenth Celebration

Juneteenth and Beyond is now in its third year and continues to invite both campus and community members into Centennial Hall for Juneteenth related activites! VIP team lead Duane Cyrus choreographed the main performances of the evening by dancers from the School of Dance!

From the article:

"American culture has been influenced greatly by many dances and movements from the African diaspora, from tap to hip-hop, ballet to Broadway and beyond," said Cyrus. "Culture is carried in the body, and movement of the body impacts culture. My goal with this Juneteenth performance is to share only a few of the styles of dance which Black people have built and are part of the fabric of American culture."
