Plant A Shoe, Join A Movement!
We’ve all been encouraged at one time or another to imagine what it would be like to walk in someone else’s shoes. This summer, Dance Truck and Garden*Hood take it one step further: we’re encouraging you to set roots in someone else’s shoes!
In support of Dance Truck’s upcoming performance of Blake Beckham’s PLOT, Garden*Hood is hosting a shoe planting extravaganza on Saturday, July 16. Garden*Hood will provide the shoes, soil, plants, water and a festive atmosphere as you turn the lost sole of your choice into a planter worthy of the spotlight. And, in fact, it will become a star: all shoes planted during the July 16th event will take the stage with the dancers of PLOT. After their bout of fame (at the Goat Farm over the weekend of July 28-31), sponsored shoes will be yours to take home.
Come be part of the movement. Plant a shoe and honor the impermanence of life and art, and the joyful expression of creativity.
The Shoe Planting Party takes place at Garden*Hood, Saturday, July 16, from 10am - 3pm. Participants contribute a $10 donation to sponsor a shoe for the performance. This gets you the shoe, the plants and the soil to create your masterpiece, and guarantees its return to your hands after the show. The planting party is open to creative types of all ages! We’ve got 200 shoes to plant, so bring a friend. Kindly
RSVP to Garden*Hood manager Kacey Cloues at 404-880-9848.
PLOT is performed the weekend of July 28-31 at The Goat Farm, 1200 Foster Rd. in Atlanta. For more information, visit www.bdancing.com or www.dancetruck.org.
