In loving memory of Jennifer Vahamikos
Forward Motion Dance and the Wilmington dance community mourn the tragic and unexpected loss of company dancer Jenn Vahamikos on January 18, 2024. Jenn was a shining light who brought her special talents, care and dedication to every dance creation. Jenn will be forever in our hearts and missed by all who knew her. We are devastated by our loss, yet know her spirit lives on with us dancing, shining, laughing, and smiling. A celebration of her life will be held at the Cameron Art Museum on Sunday February 11, 2024 at 2:00 pm. Our hearts go out to Jenn’s family and friends. More on her life can be found here. Jennifer Vahamikos June 4, 1977 – January 18, 2024
