Easter Dance Eggstravaganza 2010

On Friday 2 April 2010, over 265 children and adults of all ages from all over Lancashire joined the very first Easter Dance Treasure Trail event in Williamson Park, Lancaster.

The Easter Dance Treasure Trail was a partnership activity delivered through Ludus Dance and the Lancaster Dance Development Project (LDDP). LDDP is an initiative aimed at increasing participation in dance across the district over the next three years, and is funded by Lancaster City Council and managed by Ludus Dance.

The Treasure Trail was the first large-scale event created through LDDP and was an inspired idea that engaged hundreds of people across the community.
