Terminus Modern Ballet Theatre Proudly Announces Launch of “Wabi Sabi Terminus” Series

Terminus Modern Ballet Theatre (TMBT) is proud to announce the revival of its signature public performance initiative, Wabi Sabi Terminus, which debuts on October 30, 2025, at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. The show begins at 5:30 p.m. ET and is part of the company’s ninth season. Titled “ECHO,” these performances are open to the public, at no additional cost, with the purchase of regular garden admission or membership.

Originally conceived in 2011 by Artistic Director John Welker, Wabi Sabi was created to bring original contemporary ballet works to Atlanta’s public spaces, embracing themes of impermanence, asymmetry, and the beauty found in the unexpected. Now reimagined by TMBT, the program is guided by artistic leadership from Lenai Wilkerson, Amalie Chase, and Elizabeth Labovitz.

“Wabi Sabi has always been about breaking barriers and expanding the reach of contemporary ballet,” said John Welker, Artistic Director of TMBT. “This new chapter is more than a continuation of a program; it’s an artistic expression that strengthens our ties to the Atlanta community and beyond.”

Audiences can expect immersive, site-specific performances across Atlanta on October 30, November 1, and November 2, 2025 – continuing TMBT’s mission to make dance accessible, inspiring, and transformative for all.
