Fort Tryon Park: Celebrating National Dance Day with Uptown Dance Collective

September 21 @ 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm

🎉🩰 Celebrate National Dance Day with us at Fort Tryon Park! 🌳✨

Join us on September 21 at 3PM at Abby’s Lawn for a unique dance experience like no other! We’re thrilled to present “Reshaped Memory,” an evocative excerpt from Uptown Dance Collective’s site-specific event, and “Alterations and Repairs.”

Immerse yourself in an afternoon where dance, music, and poetry intertwine beautifully within the park’s scenic landscape. We’ll gather on Abby’s Lawn at 3PM, then take a short stroll to the performance site to witness an enchanting solo by Maxine Steinman. 🌿💃

The performance features a collaboration of artistic talents:

  • Choreography by Maxine Steinman
  • Poetry by Paul Rabinowitz
  • Music by multi-instrumentalist John Ehlis

Don’t miss this chance to be part of a truly memorable celebration of dance and artistic expression. Click the Eventbrite link  for free tickets and join us for an afternoon of inspiration and creativity!
