Let’s celebrate JUNETEENTH AT SHAWL-ANDERSON DANCE CENTER WITH A
LIVELY SALON GATHERING ON JUNE 21, 2025!ABOUT THIS EVENT
Curated by the , join US on Saturday, June 21, for _*_ANCESTRAL
JOY!*** , a Juneteenth Salon and celebration. Please join us in the
jubilee as we come together as a community to dance and experience
performance art inspired by the history of Bay Area BIPOC artists.
“Being rooted in ancestral joy means I am nurturing the essence of
what brought my people joy here in America. I am honoring the memories
of their lives by pursuing their most cherished dreams of freedom,
love, wealth, and legacy. Roots—particularly those from the maple or
cottonwood trees—don’t always grow toward the earth’s core; they
also spread and intertwine horizontally. Similarly, this joy we are
rooted in reflects our intention to stay connected to the legacies of
our loved ones, our community of supporters, and DANCE ENTHUSIASTS
HERE IN THE BAY AREA.”- _*CO-DIRECTOR NOAH JAMES III_*
