SUMMARY:Calpulli Mexican Dance Company in Van Cortlandt Park
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a performance and demonstration of Mexican Folklorico Dance on the lawn of the Van Cortlandt House Museum. \n\n\n\n\nVan Cortlandt Park Alliance is thrilled to welcome Calpulli Mexican Dance Company to Van Cortlandt Park for the first time for a performance and demonstration on Mexican Folklorico Dance. \nFounded in 2003 in New York City\, Calpulli Mexican Dance Company\, also known as Calpulli Danza Mexicana\, celebrates the rich diversity of Mexican and Mexican-American cultural heritage through dance-based programming including live music. The word “calpulli” is the Nahuatl word for clan or family united by a common thread; or an organizational unit or a syndicate. This name was chosen because their vision was to create a home for artists and audiences to explore a range of themes through a Mexican lens. \nCalpulli Mexican Dance Company is deeply committed to sharing Mexican culture with audiences that are diverse\, including dance and music enthusiasts of any background and immigrant Mexican American families who attend performances and free/low-cost community classes in large numbers. \nThis cultural enrichment event is fun for the whole family- parents and kids of all ages welcome.\nEnter the park at Broadway and W. 246th Street. \n\nRSVP Now. \n\nThis program is supported\, in part\, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the New York City Council. \nSpecial thank you to the Van Cortlandt House Museum.
