Caribeando Community Music and Dance Workshops

Saturdays:
July 18 from 3pm to 5pm

The Caribeando Community Music and Dance Workshop provides an excellent opportunity to learn and practice Caribbean musical and dance traditions rooted in African heritage. Participants will learn Bomba, Plena, Guaracha, Cha-cha-cha, Merengue, and more. All ages, abilities, and skill levels are welcome to explore the basic rhythms, steps, call-and-response interactions, and shared community joy.

Workshop will be held next to the Enslaved African & Kingsbridge Burial Ground behind the Tennis Courts.

Parking is available in the Van Cortlandt Golf Lot. No driving inside the park allowed.

This series is sponsored by The NYC Green Fund Grassroots Grant Program.

This series is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the New York City Council.
