DONATE TO DYFIT
Eight smiling DYFIT dancers stand together in front of a mural on the wall of Ayeeyo Childcare Center on Lake Street. The mural is bright orange with blue, yellow and green shapes. Overlaid on top of the photo are the words: "Don't You Feel It Too?"
Don’t You Feel It Too?: 15 Years of Love & Movement!
Help SUPPORT A MILESTONE YEAR OF PUBLIC DANCE AND LIBERATION
We are thrilled and humbled to enter our 15th year of love and movement, and to celebrate it with you! What began as a four-day experiment in alternative protest has become an ongoing, creative contribution to the Twin Cities arts, activist, spiritual, and higher education communities. This coming year, we will feast on the experiences and build on the abundance of 15 years of Don’t You Feel It Too?
Please enjoy this photo series as a small taste of what’s to come. The words were inspired by Marcus Young's poem, Techniques (for dancing as protest) and Gabrielle Civil's essay, Public Mysteries: Don’t You Feel It Too? at the edge of imagining, used by permission of Coffee House Press from the déjà vu, 2022. There are many more stories to share. Enjoy with us a year of reflection, meaning making, and charting the next 15 years with a donation of any amount!
