Tongva Park’s Art @ Tongva program concludes its 2017 season on June 7th & 8th with new dance work by Mecca Vazie Andrews, a two-evening performance of newly choreographed dance work created especially for the park by choreographer Mecca Vazie Andrews. Performed by Andrews and The MOVEMENT movement.    This mesmeric and participatory performance choreographs stunning visuals, quiet activations, and musical explorations to juxtapose the unusual geography of gardens, winding paths, and urban vistas of Tongva Park as designed by James Corner Field Operations, the creative geniuses behind the High Line in New York.   Art @ Tongva is an ongoing series of intimate and informal events. The series is presented by the City of Santa Monica Cultural Affairs Division and produced by Dyson & Womack. Both evenings are free and open to the public.
