Jul 10 2024 • 1 hr 3 mins

Sharisa Oie and Lydia McAnerney work with the Tapestry Folk Dance Center in Minneapolis, MN. We explore the center's mission to create opportunities for people to participate in diverse dance and music forms. Sharisa and Lydia share their personal stories and backgrounds in dance, as well as the history and development of Tapestry as both a cultural and physical space. We discuss the importance of community involvement, volunteerism, and the challenges of maintaining and evolving such a vibrant cultural space. We also review special events, the Tapestry History Project, and the impact of generational changes in dance communities.
