Celebrate five decades of artistry with Michigan’s longest-standing professional contemporary dance company! This unforgettable evening on the MSU floodplain—where Happendance first performed in 1976—honors our history while embracing the future. The gala features revivals of beloved works from the past, a new piece created with original “Wise Women” dancers including founder Diane Newman, and dynamic performances by today’s company. Free and open to the public, this milestone event invites our community to share in a night of movement, memory, and magic.
