A beautiful, informative and engaging performance A beautiful, informative and engaging performance of Bharatanatyam and Kathak classical Indian dance by Seema Kudur Viswanath at the UNC Rex Rehabilitation and Nursing Care Center of Apex. It was a bright way to start the day for both the patients and the United Arts team ❤️.
This is the first year of our Artists in Communities program, bringing our world class teaching artists to senior living and wellness facilities. This inaugural program is generously being sponsored by Home Instead of Raleigh.
