Now in its eleventh year, Chicago Dance Month provides more than 60 performance opportunities for artists and companies to celebrate the myriad talents that make Chicago’s dance scene so strong.
In partnership with the Chicago Park District and Night Out in the Park, On the Move is a roaming, episodic, curated series of site-specific dance and movement performances. Performances will take place at Promontory Point, 5491 S.

In this beautiful public outdoor setting, audiences are able to learn about and experience a vast array of dance genres.
