Join us at the new Cultural District Plaza this Saturday!

We are excited to team up with the Portland Art Museum on August 8th at noon for a FREE ribbon cutting performance celebrating Yinka Llori’s | YINKA ILORI joyful street mural, “Mountains Full of Blessings” ✂️💃🏻

The Cultural District Plaza will be officially opening in front of the Portland Art Museum by SW Madison Street with a new performance by Heidi Duckler Dance & Heidi Duckler Dance Northwest titled “Meet Me at The Meadow”.

Dancers will activate and celebrate the colorful painted pathways and rhythms of Yinka’s artwork, moving through the space in dialogue with its patterns and energy. Spatial and relational in nature, the work invites a deep listening to how we change in relation to one another, while acknowledging the ways space holds memory and time.

Its meaning emerges not only through what is seen in the moment, but through what is felt and shared collectively by the audience. It is an encounter with something new and unpredictable, an experience that ultimately brings us together as a community.

Enjoy a free dance performance, live music, admission to the museum and be a part of this amazing celebration! 🎊
