SUMMARY:THREADS Dance Performance + Reception
DESCRIPTION:The Art Center is a magnificent space for performances of all variety. Dating back to 1975\, Penny Furgerson’s Gateway Dance Theatre tapped into the museum’s iconic architecture and inspiring artwork\, and put their bodies in motion in powerful\, challenging\, and beautiful ways. Today\, Swan Project honors the legacy of Gateway Dance Theatre and the spirit of art access and collaboration by activating the Art Center with THREADS\, a multigenerational dance and video performance. \nThis contemporary dance performance has been produced in homage to the legacy of Gateway Dance Theatre by Sarah Jae\, Izzy Kelai\, Aminah Nalani\, and Syd Furgerson.

We invite the public to celebrate 25+ years of no-cost art experiences for our community by joining us August 22 – 24. \nGenerous support provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program. \n \nCommunity Access Programming presenting sponsor: Charlotte and Fred Hubbell\nAdditional support provided by: Corteva Agriscience\, HyVee\, Iowa State Bank\, Lincoln Savings Bank\, Meier Bernstein Foundation\, David J.
