World Belly Dance Day is an opportunity to celebrate the wonderful art of belly dance, uniting many dancers from around the world, holding this event as a reminder that belly dance is an art form, a cultural event, a sport, and a social and family entertainment.
The wonderful idea to celebrate this day came from Lydia Tzigane, a professional Middle Eastern artist from Dubai.
Join us for this exceptional day of celebrating the beautiful art of Belly Dance, the beauty of women and to share the love of dancing with people around the world.
This year again the dance troupe of Invermere will take this opportunity to raise funds for two charities. All profits will be equally divided between Invermere’s Youth Action Committee and Plan Canada’s program “Because I am A Girl”.
The festivities will start with two dance workshops followed by a taste of the Middle Eastern dinner catered by Anne Riches, with wine & beer bar and dance entertainment. A silent auction with amazing items to bid on will be going on through the evening.
