Experience movement as medicine this summer with an evening of healing hosted by a local dance collective focused on uplifting BIPOC men.
Following a social hour from 5 to 6 pm, visitors are encouraged to participate in a meditative movement workshop led by Twin Cities–based dancer and choreographer Colin Edwards, founder of Meridian Movement. The session is designed to gently reset your nervous system, accompanied by live music. Enjoy a performance of Shadow on the Sun, a new duet by company dancers, and engage in a community dialogue on redefining masculinity.
