Music & Motion Dance at Grounds for Sculpture



For the past six years, Music & Motion Dance has found a home at the Grounds for Sculpture, where it has been able to dance and offer a variety of programs to the public in one of the most inspirational of settings.

In 2010, both Music & Motion Dance and Grounds for Sculpture will celebrate their tenth anniversary.
For the 2010 season, Music & Motion Dance will be the resident dance company at Grounds for Sculpture offering a series of special performances and workshops throughout the year. In addition, the public will have a chance to view the creation of site specific pieces and works in progress as we rehearse on selected Sundays throughout the year.

Grounds For Sculpture
, located in Hamilton, New Jersey (midway between Philadelphia and New York), is a whimsical thirty-five acre sculpture garden and arboretum on the former site of the New Jersey State Fairgrounds. Founded by Seward Johnson to promote an understanding of and appreciation for contemporary sculpture, the park has been enchanting visitors since 1992, and in 2010 will celebrate its 10th year as a not-for-profit organization. Grounds For Sculpture features more than 250 contemporary sculptures, and two 10,000 square foot museum galleries with rotating exhibits. In addition, the park offers workshops for children and adults, concerts, performances, fairs, shopping and fine dining at the Zagat's-rated Rat's Restaurant, which recently was awarded Philadelphia Magazine's Best of Philly 2009: Most Romantic Restaurant.
