Did you know just 20 minutes of exploring novel scents has the same enrichment benefits as an hour-long walk for dogs? Let's get those noses going! Join us for a self-guided hike through the trails of Bill Yeck Park, complete with sniff-stops along the way. Your dog will explore brand-new scents, and you get a beautiful fall hike with your best friend. Afterwards, treat your pup to a fall-themed pup-cup!
Participants are welcome to come anytime during the program. The final time to start the hike is 5:30 p.m.
Registration is not required.
In this performance, the dancers and choreographers of Dayton Contemporary Dance Company step into dialogue with the visual world of Gretchen Durst Jacobs, drawing inspiration from her evocative exhibition Resilient Convergence. Jacobs’ work—layered, fluid, and fiercely intricate—captures the tension between fragility and strength, chaos and harmony, emergence and release. Her swirling forms and organic abstractions echo movement already in motion, as if her lines could lift from the canvas and breathe.
The choreographers, Countess V. Winfrey, Jennifer Sydon and Stevie Lamblin interpret Jacobs’ visual language into living motion—transforming brushstroke into gesture, texture into rhythm, stillness into momentum. Each dancer becomes both canvas and catalyst, embodying the resilience at the heart of convergence: where bodies, histories, visions, and energies collide not in conflict, but in powerful coexistence.
What you witness is not just interpretation—it is collaboration across medium and spirit. A fusion of ink and muscle, pigment and breath. A testament to endurance, reinvention, and the beauty found in becoming.
