A West Essex Tradition of Care Since 1947

Dancy Funeral Home

Dancy Funeral Home has been part of the Caldwell community since 1947, providing compassionate care to families throughout West Essex for more than 75 years. Today, the Prout family — fourth-generation funeral directors — continues that tradition of service with the same integrity, kindness, and attention to detail that families have trusted for generations. As an independent, family-owned funeral home, we believe every life deserves to be remembered with dignity and personal meaning. Our services include traditional funerals, cremation and memorial services, celebrations of life, and green burial options. We also offer pre-planning and assistance with out-of-state arrangements, helping families make thoughtful choices with comfort and confidence. What makes Dancy unique is our commitment to blending time-honored traditions with modern, personalized care. Whether a family prefers a simple gathering, a religious ceremony, or an eco-friendly service, we take pride in creating experiences that reflect each individual’s story. Our funeral home in the heart of Caldwell offers a warm, welcoming space where families can find comfort, connection, and support. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll be treated like family — because to us, you are. Serving Caldwell, West Caldwell, North Caldwell, Verona, Essex Fells, Roseland, Fairfield, and surrounding communities.

Acting Out: Improv Group Style 
9 -10:15 a.m.,&nbsp; Life Hall room 1200 
Crowd Source Acting is about using improvisation to act in the moment. 
Participants will be guided in an improvisational game that allows them 
to experience dropping into a roll and having the inspiration of those 
around them to achieve a common goal. That goal could be silly, serious,
 or absurd. Join us for a round or two of a game called Family 
Portraits, guided by Theatre department practitioners.
A Moving Experience For All 
10:30-11:45 a.m., Life Hall 1210 
This session will be a dance class for beginners, emphasizing freedom of movement and some basic dance moves. 
Got Art? Take This Workshop

The Montclair State University West African Drumming and Dance Ensemble 
will perform and engage everyone to participate in traditional West 
African recreational music. We play a strong weave of polyrhythms on 
traditional drums, bells and rattles, and those in attendance will drum 
with us, sing with us in call and response in a West African language, 
and dance traditional movements with us, directed by calls from the lead
 drum. 
Let’s Get Physical: Writing Poetry about Memory and the Body 
4:30-5:45 p.m. Feliciano School of Business Room 140

They will also leave with a few additional tools in their writers’ 
toolbox.
