LOST NASHVILLE
Found Movement Group in partnership with Kindling Arts Festival
Every Saturday in October, starting October 3rd
All performances start at 6PM
Assembling Found Movement Group's talented community of dancers, musicians, performers, and other artists, Lost Nashville offers audiences an elevated scavenger hunt experience to explore the city's hidden gems. Original choreography devised by the collective will play out in theatrical scenes at memorable locations around the city such as music clubs, art galleries, boutique hotels, and outdoors parks. The experience is part “choose-your-own adventure,” part performance art crawl, and uniquely Nashville through and through. Lost Nashville will provide an unforgettable experience that exposes the rich, unseen, and sometimes forgotten pieces of the city.
Audiences can now purchase tickets for a minimum donation of $10 per person via Eventbrite. As part of the purchasing process, FMG will request social media and cell phone numbers for each attendee for communication and virtual clues. Performances of Lost Nashville will comply with Covid-19 safety precautions, including required masks and social distancing.
