grounding responds to sites and monuments representing the Civil Rights movement to enliven the histories, reflect the struggles and strides, and animate our hearts and bodies into action. The site-specific work is choreographed and performed by co-director Brittany Delany in collaboration with Riverside dancers Ana Cruz, Crystal Edwards, Edwin Sigüenza and Aisha Stewart. Set for Monday, September 30, 2024 at 4:15PM, the performance will emerge outdoors at the Riverside Main Public Library, across from the Civil Rights Institute of Inland Southern California. The ensemble dance will emphasize social dance, improvisation, collective joy and resilience.
