Outside the Box returns to White Rock

Second annual celebration of fibre and textile arts comes to Peninsula Sept. 8.

Outside The Box, the second annual celebration of fibre and textile arts returns to White Rock Sept. 8 to Oct. 5.

A special preview event will be hosted by the White Rock Library on Wednesday, Sept. 5.

Dance group The Fusionistas will present an art in motion performance featuring conceptualized fibre and textile designs.

The combination of dance and artistic costuming explores a rich history of dance from around the world, including improvisational tribal style, belly dance, flamenco, folkloric and Kathak, leader Stephanie Lafreniere said.

“Our dance demonstrates the strength, empowerment and beauty of women working together, exploring ideas and being creative,” she said.

“It is a meeting of the three most ancient modes of expression: visual art, dance and music (rhythm).”

All are welcome.
