In addition to SDHS’s Norway conference in June of 2013, SDHS will also be hosting a joint conference in conjunction with the Congress on Research in Dance at the Riverside Mission Inn and Spa in Riverside, California, November 14–17, 2013. Surrounded by breathtaking architecture, timeless beauty and old-world charm, The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa welcomes you to a destination where rich history, modern luxury, and classic elegance exist in perfect balance. With authentic California history, art and culture, unique landmarks, adventurous outdoor attractions, and exciting events, Riverside offers visitors an unmatched, unique California meeting experience. It’s this unsurpassed character and personality that makes Riverside the capital of Southern California’s Inland Empire, and one of the most fun and unique California meeting destinations.

SDHS and CORD will be hosting this joint conference to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the University of California at Riverside’s PhD program in Critical Dance Studies. Please make plans to join CORD and SDHS for this once in a lifetime occasion.
