April 6 Ten Tiny Dances

Portland is a DIY town. As an alternative to galleries or expensive stage shows with lighting and sound, Portland artists have pioneered venues which can reach a larger audience. Examples would be the Music Population Orchestra, SoWa public art projects, guerrilla art projects like Scott Wayne Indiana's horses, tailgating by Sincerely John Head and Ten Tiny Dances.

Dances occur on a stage 4x4 feet, 2 feet off the ground. That allows the stage to move to find the audience, rather than the reverse. Each program has several short pieces by a variety of performers. You will not be bored. Tonight it is Mike Barber, Cydney Wilkes, Lane Hunter, Anne Egan, Lauren Edson, Jim McGinn, Lizzie Carr, Rachel Fachner, Key Turn Project, Wooley Mammoth Comes to Dinner.

At Clyde Common. 1014 SW Stark. Doors 6:30PM, show 7:30. Presales sold out. $15? at the door.
