The Belonging Resident Company, a dance/theater troupe out of the Othering and Belonging Institute, directed by Sarah Crowell and Sangita Kumar, presents a workshop experience that centers collaboration, creativity, embodied storytelling, and joy, to co-create strategies for addressing climate change. The workshop will build community through simple movement and theater exercises, offering participants the opportunity to share their stories.

The dynamism and allure of flamenco come alive on stage in an evening of dance and music with Melissa Cruz. Joined by her cast of seasoned professionals and dedicated studio dancers, Cruz presents a diverse program of dances, expressing the full spectrum of human emotion.

This performance of Flamenco a las 8 features Kalifeña, a music and dance ensemble directed by Cruz, inspired by an idea to unite voices of women who, despite their diverse backgrounds, have a thread of commonality between them – the study of flamenco, the art form from Andalucía, Spain deemed by UNESCO as a treasure of World Cultural Heritage. Kalifeña melds original compositions and traditional flamenco styles with flamenco dance as its cornerstone.
