Program Description

Event Details

Presented by Rebeca Tomas and her A Palo Seco Flamenco Company Duo. 

Enjoy a afternoon of activities and a hands-on experience of the Spanish art of Flamenco. With top-notch artists, including live guitar, singing, and dancing, audience members are able to see and hear the different sounds, styles, and emotions inherent in Flamenco. Learn about the geographic and historical roots of the different cultures and religions that created Flamenco, while also learning Spanish vocabulary and counting. Participants learn how to play the castanets and do zapateo "footwork," and even a short choreography which ends with a lively "Ole!"
