Through concert dance and the styles of Contemporary Ballet, Modern Dance and Contemporary Dance, talented and innovative established, new and rising choreographers from New York City and abroad show their work.
The audience will benefit from the opportunity to experience and appreciate different works and points of view from artists of different Latin backgrounds.
