New Works’ All Over the Map summer series of free dance and music on Granville Island, comes to a close on September 24 at 3 pm with its third and final installment for 2022 at the Granville Island Public Market Courtyard. 

Three artists come together to present a rich afternoon of movement and music, weaving connections of community and space.

Inviting the audience in to dance with them, Dance Theatre Uganda, led by Edward Sambatya, shares Kyoto, a participatory dance and drum performance for all ages.

Next up, Her Tribal Roots, a collective of seven dance and music artists, shares work on reimagining how we interact with one another and with nature through a mosaic of different dance styles as well as music, poetry, and culture.
