Body of Water is a multimedia production using video, music and dance to tell the story of water usage and quality within our watersheds and communities. The performance-based project was conceived, choreographed and directed by Luther College dance professor Jane Hawley in conjunction with her Jodi Enos-Berlage, a biology professor at Luther who conducts water quality research. Originally presented in Decorah in 2015, the production highlights how small actions by individuals accumulate into a powerful force, producing an outcome that benefits all. A facilitated dialogue will follow the 1-hour performance. Part of the 10th Annual Iowa Water Conference
