Visiting all the way from Belgium, the Vlaggendansgroep Symbolica only tours the US once every 7 years, so you won’t want to miss this unique performance!
Join us in welcoming the Vlaggendansgroep Symbolica (Flag Dance Group) visiting all the way from Belgium! In partnership with Avalon School for the Arts, Windmill Island Gardens will be one of this group’s final stops in the US before continuing their international tour. While the group tours Europe each summer, they only visit the US once every seven years, so you don’t want to miss this free show!
The Vlaggendansgroep Symbolica is a dance group made up of over 30 young men ages 10-18 that formed in 1969 in honor of the former boys’ school Sint-Jan Bergmans College in Genk’s 50th anniversary, and they have been adding a modern twist on traditional Flemish flag dancing ever since.
This free performance will take place at Windmill Island Gardens in the lawn to the East of our Posthouse building on Monday, July 21 from 6:00pm – 7:00pm. We encourage everyone to bring their own lawn chairs to enjoy the show!
