International dance day | Grow Air + gLowbal Air
International Dance Day 2021: both live dance performances (how we’ve missed them!) and remote dancing (as has become the norm!)
Program:
1:00–2:00 p.m., S. Moniuška Square – Grow Air – the closing event of the urban culture cultivation initiative launched a year ago by the Vilnius City Dance Theater “Low Air” in collaboration with landscape designer Renata Mikailionytė and partners Sodo Botanika:
– Presentation of the renovated S. Moniuška Square
– A performative dance piece by the Low Air troupe inspired by “The Rite of Spring,” commemorating the 50th anniversary of the death of Igor Stravinsky, one of the most influential composers of the 20th century
– A safe gathering with people we’ve missed

Program:
7:00–8:30 p.m., on Zoom – gLowbal Air – a virtual gathering of dance, movement, and improvisation for Lithuanians around the world.
We invite you to the fourth gLowbal Air—to take a fresh look at yourself, your body, and your thoughts, and to embark on a journey around the world, meeting Lithuanians living in various corners of the globe. The fourth dance class, broadcast from Lithuania, will be led by dancer and teacher Austėja Žalalytė.
*Information dissemination partners: Vilnius City Municipality, Ministry of Foreign Affairs – Global Lithuania. We are looking for more friends and partners who wish to contribute and support the initiative in any way.
