Indo Idaho Brings Indonesia to Day of Dance 3

On September 20, 2025, Geiser Pollman Park was filled with music, color, and joy for Day of Dance 3, a celebration of National Dance Day hosted by Crossroads Carnegie Art Center. Dozens of groups shared their traditions, and at noon, Indo Idaho took the stage to showcase the heart of Indonesia through dance.

The performance began with the graceful Merak Dance, where dancers shimmered like peacocks spreading their wings.

For Indo Idaho, this wasn’t just about performing; it was about connecting. Each dance carried a piece of Indonesia’s story, and the audience responded with curiosity, applause, and even their own dance steps.

Day of Dance 3 reminded us how culture brings people together. Indo Idaho left the stage with hearts full, grateful to share Indonesia’s beauty with the Idaho community.
