Indicative of shared weird times, Eugene’s National Dance Week will bring performances downtown, a rare instance after more than a year of silence. The long pause does not mean that dancers have been idle, though.
“I was thinking I probably would get a lot of ‘nos’ because it s been COVID and no one s been creating new work,” Eugene Culture Services downtown programs coordinator Jana Meszaros said. “What I found is that nobody stopped in the dance community. Everyone s been finding ways to continue to share their craft.”
Eugene Cultural Services will celebrate its third annual National Dance Week from Friday, April 16 through Sunday, April 25. As Oregon’s only city-wide National Dance Week celebration, vibrant events will activate spaces in and around downtown for cultural enthusiasts of all ages with free participatory tutorials, innovative performances and virtual content.
