The results of the study show that the collaborative art project between schools and the art community in learning Sego Megono Dance reveals the didactic and aesthetic experiences of students, teachers and the art community in learning Sego Megono Dance at SMP Negeri 12 Pekalongan. This teacher's experience obtained new findings, namely students' interest in learning dance art increased, students became more interested and active and gained aesthetic experience from the dance art community and dance teachers.
