Mendocino Dance Project to invite audiences on a journey through nature with dance

MENDOCINO CO., 9/9/26 — Vertical dance performances by the Mendocino Dance Project this month in Philo’s redwoods aim to create a unique audience experience, coalescing art in a natural setting. 

The nonprofit dance troupe’s mission is to keep the performing arts alive and accessible in rural communities — and locating a dance project in the world’s tallest trees is surely a singular effort. The group will put on their annual performances of Dance the Redwoods in a Philo forest on several September dates, including an annual fundraising gala.
