Visual and performing art collide when ORH Dance presents PRIMAVERA. Inspired by the Renaissance painting La Primavera
(c. 1477–1482) by Sandro Botticelli, as well as the work of American modern dance pioneer Isadora Duncan, the performance taps into themes of beauty, joy, and spirituality found within classical myths. The piece is performed outdoors, among large-scale photographs of botanical subjects by contemporary artist Laurie Tennent, and celebrates spring with stunning images and choreography. Free, 6pm.
