Jewels of the Triangle: Belly Dance Gala and Fundraiser

Ring in the New Year with a fabulous Belly Dance Gala!
I am very pleased and excited to announce the upcoming event, Jewels of the Triangle: Belly Dance Gala and Fundraiser. This is a very special event for me since it is the first event that I am sponsoring/organizing with my troupe. Please come and support us!

The purpose of this event is to raise money for a brand new scholarship, called the Triangle Oriental Dance Scholarship. All proceeds from the event will go to establishing the scholarship fund. This important scholarship will help those who wish to take belly dance classes, but can't afford them, the opportunity to become the dancers they've always dreamed of being. More information about the scholarship will be announced at the event.

Presented by the Happy Hips Belly Dance Troupe and Khahari Belly Dance Collaborative, with special guest Sadiya, this event is sure to entertain dancers and non-dancers alike. The show will feature local vendors, door prizes and an array of different belly dancers--from Oriental to Tribal to Children's belly dance.
