Untitled Night for Grand Marais by Morgan Thorson

In the images above you see Untitled Night by Morgan Thorson.  This outdoor nocturnal dance event, made for extreme climates, is a multi-phase dance project and your donations will support the next phase of this work. With collaborators/performers Sam Aros-Mitchell, Alexandra Beaumont, Dienae “D” Hunter, Eva Mohn & Arwen Wilder, Untitled Night heads to Grand Marais, MN on Dec. 9, to prepare a new offering as part of Cook County's Dark Sky Festival 2024. Your contribution will cover artists fees and lodging costs for our residency and performance on Friday, December 13, 2024. 

This quiet iteration of Untitled Night invites audiences to immerse into the temperament of winter and bask in the drama of night. As stars come out, the dance emerges and nestles into the surroundings with little illumination. The new collection of dance essays is propelled by micro – movements shared by all living things. Our group articulations collaborate with stars, plants and other forces we cannot see. To address and soothe our climate crisis, Untitled Night advocates for the restoration of dark nights, inviting participants outdoors to share in a moving culture of action under the night sky.

Untitled Night at the Dark Sky Festival 2024 is supported by MOVO Space and Visit Cook County in Grand Marais, MN.
