The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts joins forces with Mid-America Arts Alliance and Omaha, Nebraska's Amplify Arts to present two local groups. First, Lauren Simpson Dance's “dance delivery," 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑇𝑟𝑢𝑐𝑘, takes shape from the topography of neighbors' front yards and dancing at a distance. Then, Conny Franko—joined by Kethro—braids family, community, and the Chicano culture of a flyover state into music & lyrics that make space for change. Arts Across America is brought to you by Facebook.
Please note: Conny Franko's set features strong language. Viewer discretion is advised.
