Julia Adam Dance is pleased to present SOLIS, the fourth installment of the renowned elemental series that immerses the audience in an experience for all the senses. Atop the expansive Big Mesa Farmstead in West Marin with sweeping views of the West Marin hills, SOLIS explores the themes of fire and our relationship to energy through a transformative experience of locally sourced food and open-air ballet featuring former San Francisco Ballet principal Julia Adam and her corps of elite dancers.
Julia Adam Dance is an evolving collaboration and literal marriage between former dancer and choreographer Adam and her husband Aaron Lucich, a producer, rancher and agricultural activist. The two have cultivated a rich team of talented artists and artisans who will create their magic again this summer.
“We strive to provide a deep connection to the environment through a wholly immersive experience that brings together dance and local gourmet cuisine in a beautiful outdoor setting,” said Adam, founder of Julia Adam Dance. “This isn't your typical ballet with a catered meal. It's a cultural event rooted in the environment. Our commitment to community, the transparency of the food and the connection to place takes this to a new level. It's very hunter gatherer," added Aaron Lucich.
SOLIS is the fourth installment of Julia Adam Dance’s series that is designed to spark the wisdom of what ties us together through community, art, food, and the natural world. Each evening starts with a multi-course, Farm Table feast served family style utilizing transparently sourced food from the local bounty of Marin and Sonoma Counties. Local purveyors include Big Mesa Farmstead, Gospel Flat, Star Route Farms, True Grass Farms pork and lamb and Lucich’s Holistic Ag Beef. Wines from Enkidu, and beers and non-alcoholic libations curated by Mojo.
After dinner, guests gather with steaming cups of sipping chocolate and meander to the open-air stage for the world premiere of the latest ballet from Julia Adam Dance. A limited number of tickets are now on sale for the six gatherings of SOLIS during the weekends of July 14-16 and July 21-23, from 5pm – 10pm at Big Mesa Farm in West Marin. Tickets are $200 and available at JuliaAdamDance.com
