Time and Cycle is a compelling dance production that travels through the four cosmic ages—Satya, Treta, Dvapara, and Kali Yuga—revealing time as a living cycle of creation, sacrifice, challenge, renewal, and inner awakening. Each yuga is thoughtfully paired with reflections from Washington’s landscapes, histories, and present-day life—from the return of salmon and the resilience of cedar trees, to the memory held by rivers, the renewal of Mount St. Helens, and the search for balance in modern city life.

Join us this September for a unique workshop on the historic technique of Korean Patchwork sewing, called Jogakbo! With the simple tools of a needle and thread, visitors will hand stitch a small patchwork piece using beautiful scraps of cloth from Korea and enjoy creating without rules or plans. Watch the small pieces become a finished whole. This technique is accessible for beginners as well as those with sewing experience, as it emphasizes reuse of materials and creative thinking rather than following a pattern. All materials provided. Minors must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the activity.
