Driftless Water Dance 2025- Free, Public Dance Performance

Come see the culmination of 8 months of place based community dance making in this free and public dance performance as part of the Global Water Dance Festival happening all around the world on the same day. In Big Joe Alley at 5 pm on June 14th on the river at the National Eagle Center Amphitheatre in Wabasha MN you will have the opportunity to witness this contemporary dance piece made about the driftless region by people who live here. This piece is a part of performances around the world in relationship with, in defense of, and about water for the Global Water Dance Festival. Drawing inspiration from and focusing on the driftless region, the dualities of the river, and the Dakota territory we reside on here in this part of the Upper Mississippi River Valley, the piece was made through community workshops across the area. This grant is a Capstone Event thanks to a generous Emerging Artist Grant from Southeastern MN Arts Council. There will be a moment at the end where the audience is invited to participate as we walk down to the river, all are welcome and encouraged to join.

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund.
