The Crossroads Project unites rural, suburban, and urban communities through dance, writing, and performance to explore identity, foster collaboration, and break down stereotypes. Young dance artists from Appomattox Regional Governor’s School (Petersburg/Richmond, VA); Cora Dance Alleghany (Alleghany County, VA); Cora Dance Brooklyn (Red Hook, Brooklyn, NYC); and Vernon Johns Middle School have been working with Cora Dance educators and local facilitators to develop material inspired by their experiences of home and meet for the first time in February on the ARGS campus to create and present shared performances that reflect their unique journeys and perspectives.

Join us for two performances of Crossroads on Thursday, February 13, at 11:00 AM and 12:30 PM in the Pittman Studio* at Appomattox Regional Governor’s School. Witness the power of art to connect and inspire across divides! FREE. Courtesy RSVP requested to dpurvis@args.us.

*The Pittman Studio is located behind Pittman Technical Annex, in the rear of 35 Pine Street (parking entrance on Wythe Street) on the campus of the Appomattox Regional Governor's School for the Arts and Technology, Petersburg, VA.
