In 2024, GWD-NY will be participating in Earth Celebrations’s Ecological City. This event, taking place in the Lower East Side of Manhattan on May 11, will challenge countless observers, locally and online, to deepen their understanding about the importance of water and the environment in human communities.
Each local event invites participation, teaches about our local and/or worldwide water crises and inspires imagination. Taking responsibility for valuing and protecting water flows easily into other ways of caring for the planet (carbon footprint, recycling, etc). Local communities will be encouraged not only to dance but also to find ways to take action to solve their immediate water challenges, thinking globally while acting locally.
JOIN OUR COMMUNITY
We invite choreographers, dance groups, community organizations, environmentalists, artists, musicians, water activists and all that are interested to join in and participate. Each GWD-NY local event reflects the importance of water as seen by that local community and in the ecosystems we share. In each location we invite participation to help spread the word about our local and/or worldwide water challenges. Join the GWD-NY team as activist, audience, performer or helper. If you are a choreographer, we invite you to work with the people in your community to drive a process that builds up collaboration with a wide range of artists, scientists, and environmental activists.
