This Thursday, Los Angeles-based Activist Dance Theatre company CONTRA-TIEMPO is coming to Northwest Arkansas for a week-long residency, which includes a free dance masterclass and a public dance performance at the Walton Arts Center.

• A workshop: The masterclass will be rooted in CONTRA-TIEMPO’s unique dancing style which incorporates Salsa, Afro-Latinx social movement forms, and improvisation. The class is scheduled for Thursday, April 14 in Star Theater, and registration is required to participate. 
• A show: The performance will be on Saturday, April 16 as a participatory experience featuring several dancers from NWA. The experience is called joyUS justUS and is based on personal truths about the power of hope, faith, and family.
