11th Annual CubaCaribe Festival of Dance & Music- Week 2

The festival has been highly acclaimed for being the only festival to present popular, contemporary and folkloric cultural expression, religion, history, and politics of the Afro-Caribbean Diaspora. This year's theme, In Search for Soul, will investigate how spirit, core and heart, emerge in the essence of movement and cultures of the Caribbean Diaspora.

The second weekend entitled Soul Caribe features our ever-popular Mixed Program whose dance companies represent the wide-reaching influence of the soul of Afro-Latino culture. From Africa to Colombia to Mexico to Puerto Rico to the United States, this eclectic offering of dance companies is sure to move you! This week will feature performances by Alafia Dance Ensemble (Afro-Haitian), Bravisimo Youth Ensemble (Afro-Cuban Modern), Colombian Soul (Colombian), Cunamacué (Peruvian), Dimensions Dance Theater (African American), La Mezcla (Mexican), Aguacero (Puerto Rican), Grupo Experimental Nago (Afro-Cuban). The work of these artists promises to expand our notions of the folkloric and contemporary in the context of the Caribbean Diaspora.
