UDEO Fall Conference

Dear Utah Dance Educators,

Please join us for the 2022 UDEO Fall Conference at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, UT!

The 2022 UDEO Fall Conference, with the theme of Flowing forward: applying abundance to ourselves, our teaching, and our community, responds to a shared desire to create new dialogue and practices for ourselves as educators.

We are planning a day of connection and recuperation to fill our wells as dance educators. Schedule is posted below. If you have questions, please direct them to conference co-chair, Meghan Wall at mwall@westminstercollege.edu.

Best,

Meghan Wall and Cat Kamrath, UDEO Fall Conference Chair
