Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in March, Dancing Spirit has been closed to teaching. Dancing Spirit created Out Reach Art kits, starting in April. “It’s important to volunteer in your communities at this time — many organizations need help,” emphasized Kasey Correia, co-founder of ELHI in Ignacio and executive director of Dancing Spirit Community Arts Center.
