Join us for Rhythmix Rising Seas, where Art meets Community to shape a resilient and sustainable future.
Rising Seas is a series of three free public art performances presented in May through July, that will transform Alameda’s waterfront into a compelling stage for global music, immersive dance, and site-responsive theater.
Experience KT Nelson & dancers’ audience-immersive choreography acknowledging the fragility of living on an island amidst a climate crisis. The dance is set to a soundscape of the voices of local residents and climate leaders exploring the question “Where do you draw the line?”.
Enjoy the theatrics of the “Climate Detective from the Future”, directed by Jeff Raz, as he looks for climate clues to find out where things went wrong and where things are headed in a positive direction. Each location tells a unique site-specific story.
Acknowledging our ancestral lands and listening to music and stories of different island cultures gives a global perspective about living in balance and respect for our natural surroundings. Each event will feature a new world musical ensemble to highlight the traditions of Puerto Rico, Bali and Hawai’i.
During each event, artists and local climate organizations will offer fun hands-on activities for the community to participate in and learn about actions they can take to help mitigate climate change.
