Daily workshops led by Founding Artistic Director Rulan Tangen and a workshop by Māori guest artist Jade Whaanga from New Zealand welcome all levels, ages, and backgrounds.
The residency features extensive open community invitations with daily workshops including EARTH BODY movements, Flowering Way morning meditations, and Earth Warrior fitness sessions. And, a selection of local community artists will be invited for participate in an artistic creation intensive, participating in two evening performances that weave solos and group works into rituals of embodied story and energy activations.
The culminating performances are accompanied by Erin Currier's dance-inspired painting exhibition and post-show artist dialogues.
