In "Everyday Dances II," Malashock Dance presents works by nine local choreographers, including Arts District at Liberty Station Emerging Artist resident Lavina Rich. The showcase, which features music ranging from Kendrick Lamar to Frank Zappa, is inspired by the concept of "mingei," or art for the people, and is a step towards a new future for Malashock dance.
