SKY Campus Happiness presents the World Culture Dance Competition (WCDC) - a celebration of the rich cultural diversity of dance and performance, from college students around the country.
The intention of the WCDC is to uplift mental well-being in students, inspire a greater sense of belonging, and celebrate diversity through cultural performances!
This is the first inter-collegiate dance competition of its kind - combining dance forms from across the globe!
This competition is part of a build-up towards the World Culture Festival taking place on the Mall in Washington, DC in September 2023 – an event and movement to celebrate the rich cultural diversity of the world, and to inspire a greater sense of belonging to a 'One World Family' that unifies us all.
