Posted Mar 7, 2024 | Posted in: News

From Borderless Arts Tennessee –

Five people pose indoors, three standing and two seated. They wear red and white shirts with Borderless Dance Community logos. The seated individuals hold a sign that says, We are Belgium bound! with a suitcase and Belgium flag. Borderless Arts Tennessee has been invited by the US Embassy in Belgium to come and speak to area arts organizations and organizations that serve people with disabilities about our program and how it operates. In addition, some of our participants are going to conduct art workshops and dance with a focus on the WWII era in tribute to the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge.

The itinerary includes:

Presenting a Quilt of Valor and a glass poppies piece that the group has made.
The dance company will get to dance at the Ambassador’s residence.

For over twenty years, Borderless Arts Tennessee has served as a leader in opening access to the arts to people with disabilities. In partnership with and in support of artists, parents/guardians and educators, Borderless Arts Tennessee works to ensure there are resources, tools and opportunities for arts programming in schools and communities statewide. From music and theater to visual arts and dance, we strive to open the wide-ranging world of the arts to Tennessee.

Twelve people sit in a circle on the floor facing inward, with a red and white game board in the center. The group appears relaxed, and the floor is gray with a slightly reflective surface.
