Florida Keys Council of the Arts announces Dance Scholarship Winners


 

The Florida Keys Council of the Arts announces the winners of Dance scholarships to Burklyn Ballet in Vermont for summer 2005. These grants are supported by funds raised through the Arts in the Afternoon lunchtime series and private donations.

Over 21 dancers from all over the Keys auditioned on March 6th at the Coffee Mill Culture Center in Key West. The talent and energy of all the dance participants is a testament to the growing support for dance in the Keys, as well as a reflection of the dedicated dance studios and dance schools of Monroe County.

Dance scholarship winners and their dance school are:

Marliese DeMauro, The Dance Factory
KC Flumerfeldt, Joyce Bennett School of Performing Arts
Sara Hirshman, The Dance Factory and The Coffee Mill Culture Center
Blaine Vernicek, Joyce Bennett School of Performing Arts
