“The Era are arguably among the best footwork dancers in the world.”
—Chicago Reader

Following a series of virtual engagements at Wesleyan during the 2020–2021 season, The Era Footwork Crew, who have pioneered the battle dance known as Chicago footwork since 2014, will be joined on campus by DJ Spinn from the electronic collective Teklife and DJ Sydfalls for an outdoor, interactive welcome back to campus party for the Wesleyan community, accompanied by large-scale video projections of dance films and animations created by The Era in Chicago.

The rain date for this event is Saturday, September 18, 2021 from 9pm to 11pm.
