Join us this season at our first performance in the Music and Dance in the Garden Series, featuring a creative dance program by Nimbus Dance.

Beforehand, take a leisurely stroll in the garden starting at 5:30 p.m., and enjoy complimentary wine and cheese at 6:00 p.m. Showtime begins at 6:30 p.m.

The program features Dawn Marie Bazemore’s infectiously jazzy work, The After Party, set to the music of Nina Simone and Nancy Wilson, along with Artistic Director Samuel Pott’s Patch of Turf, a deeply ruminative reflection on humanity’s primal and earthy connection to the planet. The program also features a much anticipated new work by Houston Thomas, Princess Grace Award in Choreography, in collaboration with choral composer Saunder Choi, responding to Emma Lazarus’ poem, “The New Colossus”, which is engraved at the base of the Statue of Liberty. Performances by Nimbus Dance crackle with ingenious and unexpected creativity and rousing athleticism, don’t miss it!

The Music in the Garden Concert Series is generously sponsored by Stone Mountain Properties.
