kids Events for Youth and Family kids

Have you ever dreamed of being a drummer, singer or dancer?  Then join us to help author and songwriter Raquel M. Ortiz with a puppet production, based on her book, When Julia Danced Bomba / Cuando Julia bailaba bomba.  Raquel will teach bomba drumming patterns and songs. Then choreographer José Costas and dancer Emma Manzanares will share bomba dance steps. We’ll end the program with the short film Julia's Dance, A Bomba Flamenco Bedtime Tale.

Events for Youth & Families programs are made possible through generous support from the Estate of Pearl S. Reuillard in memory of her parents Yetta and Louis Schwartz.
