MIXed: Across St. Pete

Presented by projectAlchemy

MIXed: Across St. Pete is a city-wide celebration of movement, community, and place. Throughout the week, projectALCHEMY’s company dance artists — Kirsten Standridge, Heidi Brewer, Esophia Higgins-Wilkins, Sam Kedziora, Talia Demps, Antonio Hernandez, and Sarah Hamilton — will create new site-responsive works in seven neighborhoods across St. Petersburg: Roser Park, Historic Kenwood, Maximo Park, Downtown, Edgemoor, Historic Old Northeast, and The Deuces Corridor.

These dance happenings are free and intentionally ephemeral, emerging at various moments throughout the day. They are not heavily advertised. Instead, they are designed to appear organically—inviting residents to encounter dance unexpectedly in the places where they live, walk, and gather. This approach expands the idea of where dance can live and makes the art form accessible to everyone in their everyday environment.

The project concludes with a ticketed closing event at The Studio@620, where the company will create a brand-new, in-the-moment improvisational work that reflects on the dance experiences that unfolded across the city throughout the week. This performance is not a repeat of the neighborhood pieces—it is a reimagining and expansion of the stories, landscapes, and movement research discovered in those spaces, interwoven with short dance films and live music by Darren McFarland.

MIXed: Across St. Pete honors the beauty of St. Petersburg’s neighborhoods, the importance of accessible dance experiences, and the power of movement to illuminate the spaces we call home.

Student tickets will be available for purchase at the door with a valid student ID.
