Dancin' Z Path at Seattle Art Museum's Olympic Sculpture Park

July 18, 19, 2009 at 2 pm

This site-specific event created by Charlene Curtiss of Light Motion and Joanne Petroff and Debbie Gilbert of Whistlestop honors the beauty of the Olympic Sculpture Park and highlights its accessibility. Following a performance and lecture demonstration in the PACCAR Pavilion, the wheelchair and stand-up dancers will dance their way through the park using the sculptures for inspiration. Musicians Eric Chappelle and Ela Lamblin will accompany the dancers.

Free and open to the public.

This project is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Washington State Arts Commission, 4Culture Site Specific Performance Network, and Ida's Fund.
