Dance Gala 2022 celebrates its return to the Hancher stage with groundbreaking choreography created by the University of Iowa Department of Dance faculty and the premiere of new work by FLOCK. With an emphasis on FLOCK’s unique partnering style, Alice Klock and Florian Lochner will work with students to build an energetic piece in which the strength and story of each dancer are highlighted within the context of community. This year’s Dance Gala promises to engage audiences of all ages and we invite you to take a leap and join us in this celebration.
