BirdDance
July 7

July 12
3:00PM-5:00PM, Performance at 4:30PM
Location: Uncle Tim’s Bridge
Admission: FREE

Description: BirdDance is a community performance inspired by the birds of Wellfleet. All are welcome and encouraged to participate. No experience necessary. The more the merrier. Choreographer Anne Zuerner will share and facilitate simple movement patterns developed through observing the birds of Wellfleet. Those interested in participating meet one hour before the performance to learn and practice these movement patterns. Performing this dance will help us understand something new about the natural world that surrounds us and about each other. We will have fun. We will celebrate our feathered and non-feathered friends.
