Once a week, we receive information regarding dance and community events currently happening locally. We are grateful to share this info here on our site, and hope this weekly calendar encourages the public to support local venues and artists, and have fun!

Rhapsodic Global is inspired by life in Humboldt County, and it’s an honor to share content like this that puts a spotlight on some of what truly makes Humboldt special. Thanks goes out to all the people who make these events possible, and to the local dance enthusiast who puts these list together.

From: a local dance enthusiast

Good morning. Each moment of awakening is a great time to expand our minds along with the rising sky. Yesterday , Earth Day celebrations were taking place across the globe in honor of this auspicious phenomenon.  It's up to all of us to keep these moments shining and project light into the future for other species to enjoy. So , when you think that one person can't make a difference , look down at the ground , take a deep breath , and slowly raise your body back to the sky before settling back into an awakened state. We matter on all levels. Minorities of one , one and for all. Enjoy the good times!!
