Kairos Dance Group
Kairos Dance Group at UC Merced is an API cultural organization dedicated to promoting proper representation through its socials, cultural nights, and dance subunits. The group prides itself on creating a welcoming environment for a diverse population of UCM students. Through performances, workshops, and rehearsals, Kairos Dance Group fosters creativity, unity, and self-expression while offering students the opportunity to explore various dance styles. The group strives to create an inclusive space where dancers of all skill levels and backgrounds can come together, develop their talents, and engage the UC Merced community with culturally rich and impactful performances.

Fundraising Goal
Kairos Dance Group is fundraising to support their Kairoween event, an open-to-all program that brings together the four pillars of the organization’s mission: social engagement, dance, cultural awareness, and large-scale community programming.

Attendees can socialize, create crafts, and participate in dance activities while learning about AAPI supernatural folklore through an educational presentation. The event highlights connections between Eastern horror traditions and the Western celebration of Halloween, creating a space for cultural storytelling and shared experiences within the UC Merced community.
