LEHIGHTON, Pa. - The Ukrainian American Heritage Foundation of the Lower Anthracite Region is proud to host its 14th annual folk dance workshop and camp, Monday, June 30, through Friday, July 4, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., daily, at the Ukrainian Homestead in Lehighton, Pa.

The camp will conclude with a finale performance on Saturday, July 5, at 7 p.m., followed by a dance in the Homestead ballroom. The camp is open to children and young adults, age 5 and up, with classes for beginners and advanced dancers.

This year's camp features two guest instructors, David Woznak of the Kashtan School of Ukrainian Dance in Parma, Ohio, and Andrij Dobriansky of the Syzokryli Ensemble of New York City. There are special classes for advanced dancers, as well as introductory classes for new or inexperienced dancers.

As in years past, the 2003 camp also features traditional crafts and music, sports, swimming, lunch and a snack.

This camp is partially funded by a grant from the Schuylkill County Commissioners through the Schuylkill County Council for the Arts and through a grant from the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (PPA). The PPA program is a partnership initiative between local arts organizations and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA), a state agency. State government funding for the arts comes through an annual appropriation by Pennsylvania's General Assembly and from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. PPA is administered locally by the Berks Arts Council.
