Dothan, Ala. (WDNews) – Alabama Dance Works is bringing its acclaimed spring concert Continuum to the Dothan Opera House.
Thanks to a new community grant, one performance will be free for some of the Wiregrass’ most underserved residents.
Art in Public Places awarded ADW a $1,100 grant to support this year’s production, running June 12–14 at 7:00 p.m. A special free performance will take place Friday morning, June 13, specifically for individuals served by local nonprofits like The Harbor, House of Ruth, Love in Action and the Dothan Rescue Mission.
The emotionally rich show uses contemporary dance to explore identity, connection and change. Artistic Director Christina Hicks said the free show is about creating access.
“This grant allows us to open our doors wider,” she said, “Bringing Continuum to members of our community who may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience professional dance.”
“This project exemplifies the kind of community-rooted, artist-driven work we’re proud to support across the Wiregrass,” Art in Public Places Executive Director Holly Meyers added.
