About the video series:

Dance Magazine calls If Cities Could Dance “a stunner” and a “turbo shot of serious inspiration.” In season two, we raise the bar, meeting Minneapolis-based Native American hoop dancers who put a new spin on an art form thousands of years old, and women poppers in Seattle who carve out a safe space for girls in a male-dominated street style scene. Chicago footwork dancers transfer turbulent emotions into lightning-speed steps, and the modern dancers of Miami’s all-female dance troupe slow things down with sensual, sex-positive moves.

Step into the shoes of these and other dancers and celebrate artists who dare to imagine what it would look like if their city could dance. Don’t miss eight new episodes every Tuesday starting March 26th, featuring performers in Minneapolis, Chicago, Richmond (CA), Memphis, Seattle, Fresno, Oakland and Miami.

Fill out the form below for a chance to win tickets and receive weekly updates from KQED about Bay Area arts and culture.


From all entries, we'll randomly select two winners (each ticket valued at $14.00). Deadline to enter is Monday, April 15th at 11:59 PM. Winners will be notified and will receive their tickets via e-mail. You must be a California resident and 18 years or older to participate. Employees of KQED are not eligible to enter.
