I wanted to share the "Dance of the Herring"
Join MyRWA in celebrating our favorite fish — the river herring — through an evening of dance, lights, and visuals at Torbert Macdonald Park.
MyRWA’s Artist in Residence, Andres Duarte, is excited to present a free outdoor art show at Macdonald Park in Medford on Saturday, October 4th. This special interactive performance will feature live music and theatrical dance with lights and visuals
amidst the beauty of Macdonald Park. As Andres has developed his residency, he has been drawn to the Mystic’s river herring as a symbol of resilience, life, and migration that flows through our communities. Dance of the Herring — following in the footsteps
of Fish on Wheels at the Herring Run and Paddle — will celebrate the river herring along the shores of the Mystic River.
When: Saturday, October 4th from 6:00-8:00 pm.
Rain date, Sunday, October 5th
Where: Torbert Macdonald Park - 4253 Mystic Valley Pkwy, Medford, MA 02155
What: An evening of dance, music, and light to celebrate the river herring
The event is free and open to all ages. Feel free to bring a chair and blanket, stand, or sit in the grass to enjoy the performance! More information to follow.
