Each April, students across every grade at Academie Da Vinci take the stage for our Annual Dance & Music Show — a celebration of the year’s work in our K-8 dance program and music program. The show is free, open to the public, and one of the most-loved nights on our school calendar in Dunedin, FL.

What’s on the program

The Dance & Music Show features choreographed performances from our dance students — ballet, jazz, modern, and contemporary works — alongside vocal ensembles, instrumental performances, and small-group music from our music students. Each grade level performs at least one piece. Pieces are choreographed and rehearsed during the school year as part of regular arts curriculum.

Who performs

Every student at Academie Da Vinci participates. This isn’t an “audition” event — it’s a showcase of what every child is working on as part of our integrated K-8 arts program. Families of performers are always front and center, and the audience is welcoming to first-time visitors.
