 In this workshop we tend possibilities for creative resistance and restoration by considering “the weird.” Drawing on movement, meditation, and performance practices, we do-think and talk-think and read-think (a little) together. No dance/performance experience necessary. 

Hana van der Kolk, Emmett Wilson, Shannon Brooks, and Olaiya Olayemi share a relay of dedications, meditations, and provocations towards otherwise. Each of the four artists offers a dance/practice that entwines with the others’ in a communing of presences and absences, intimacies and distances.

🌟 Join us for a night of art, music, and community! 🌟 Vox Populi is bringing the vibes to the @the_trestle_inn Trestle Inn's Feel the Love Happy Hour on September 26th, from 6-9pm.
