National "Blank Day"

[timvolley]

I don't really care for root beer either. I do like that there is just about a day for anything and it is nice when you get something free or discounted because of the day.

A dot might be small, but it can be powerful, too. When you create a dot, you make your mark, and that’s what International Dot Day is all about. It’s a commemoration of our creative minds, and that’s worth celebrating! So, on Sep. 15, let’s get together to observe International Dot Day!

About the Holiday

Usually, I match books to existing holidays. Today, though, I have the pleasure of posting a review of a book that established a holiday. On September 15, 2009 teacher Terry Shay introduced his class to Peter H. Reynold’s The Dot. From that one event grew a national and then an international celebration of creativity and the freedom to make art with your heart. All around the world, school children and adults are inspired on this day to make their mark and celebrate creativity, courage, and collaboration.

National Dance Day

National Dance Day was launched in 2010 by Nigel Lythgoe, the co-creator of So You Think You Can Dance and co-founder of American Dance Movement in partnership with American congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton who introduced a National Dance Day resolution to express support for dance as a form of valuable exercise and of artistic expression. As of 2019, National Dance Day is celebrated in the United States annually on the third Saturday in September; the next celebration is September 21, 2019. Prior to 2019 celebrations were held on the last Saturday in July.
