"Dancing for A Cure!" is an event in the
greater Bay Area where amateur and professional dancers create pieces of art
through their bodies and hearts to raise funds to support medical research,
patients, and their families.
This year, San Jose Dance International will produce a
dance performance to support the brain tumor community. The goal of this event
