A Celebration of Arts in Action
We are a national community of dancers and movers who believe in the power of dance to move our bodies, our spirits, and our collective energies in bringing attention to the fragility of our waters and the impact of climate change. By creating a national simultaneous movement choir, we unite with our neighbors across the United States to move with one voice for responsible stewardship of our Earth.

THANK YOU!
As we close the doors to National Water Dance, we look back with joy and gratitude for everyone who has shared this project with us, as a participant, a supporter, an audience member, a curious bystander. It is you who gave it life and value, and we walk away with the satisfaction that a community was built that speaks with the force of our physical creativity for the waters and the natural world that is home to all of us. Like a raindrop in a still pond, we trust that many ripples have been generated from this one idea, and we are strengthened by knowing those ripples will continue to create more.
With gratitude for the work achieved and with hope and strength for the work ahead of us, we thank you!
