you think? danceImmersion is calling on the Toronto
Arts Community to be an essential part of the Welcoming Committee for our
national and international guests. We need to present them with our most
gracious selves, which naturally leads to our need for experienced
Volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering at the Conference please
