Propeller Dance - So it turns, we bloom

Don’t miss out on this amazing performance by local dance company, Propeller Dance.

A meditation on Nature, dance, and community, this two-part saga takes place over two nights, journeying through the life cycle of a plant; nurtured by the elements and guided by day/night sky. 

As the Earth turns, our reflections remind us we are one, emerging from seed to grow and bloom in our unique brilliance, to merge once again, whole together.

Join the Propeller Dance Company and students of Propeller Dance’s Education classes in a rare, blended program that reflects the soil of community and interdepen-dance that this innovative dance organization is rooted in.
