Dusk Dances is thrilled to announce Dusk Dances - Park It! Now in its second year, this initiative is designed to make our festival more accessible and welcoming than ever before. This unique evening on August 7th aims to better serve audiences using mobility devices, elders, and members of the Deaf and Disabled communities.
Expanding on our mission "to make dance accessible to communities," Dusk Dances - Park It! offers a relaxed performance where all four captivating dance pieces will be presented at a single, stationary site in Withrow Park. This means no travelling from location to location within the park – simply find your spot and enjoy the entire show!
This inclusive evening was developed in consultation with our friends at the Disability Collective. You'll experience the exact same incredible programming featured on all other Dusk Dances evenings! Join us at our stationary performance site at 7:00 PM for a free dance workshop, followed by our full dance program at 7:30 PM
To further enhance the experience, the entire week will include ASL translation provided by Gaetrie Persaud-Killings and her talented team from Phoenix the Fire. For Dusk Dances - Park It, we'll also Access Support Staff from our friends at the Disability Collective and on-site attendant support from Whimble.
The show will maintain its regular start and end times, ensuring a consistent schedule for all attendees.
