BRINGING OUR COMMUNITY TOGETHER TO CELEBRATE OUR DOWNTOWN

CREATIVITY, COMMUNITY and BUSINESS COLLIDE IN DOWNTOWN DANCES

We are partnering with the City of Moncton and Downtown Moncton Inc. and our downtown businesses in a process that will bring our community together in a completely new way through dance. Citizens from local businesses and organizations collaborate with professional artists in order to create and perform dances on sidewalks, storefronts and gathering spaces, . Downtown Dances is designed to celebrate the stories and spirit of local businesses, employees and our community.

Downtown Dances is a great way to have our businesses and employees demonstrating community leadership in building and supporting a healthy active City.

• Real people working in real businesses as well as our City Council are participating in dancing and celebrating our community to dance and music in five locations on Main Street.
• Employees will be choreographed by professional choreographers, Allen and Karen Kaeja and Igor Dobrovolskiy.
• Main Street will be blocked off for the event.
• A crowd of downtown workers and community members will proceed through the Downtown led by two vibrant host who will explain the businesses and insert stories of our development as a City.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN DANCING WITH OTHER BUSINESS MEMBERS, PLEASE REGISTER BY AUGUST 4.
