    1:30 pm: KidStage show: The Tale of the Three Little Pigs

    2:30 pm: Dance workshops by Deafblind dancer, Kerry Thompson
    How do you dance if you cannot hear the music?  How do you dance if you cannot see?  Is salsa and merengue a food or a dance?  What is bachata?  Come find out as Kerry Thompson, a Deafblind dancer and Director for Silent Rhythms Dance, teaches us to think about music and dance in a different way through performances and workshops.
