Afro-Latino Cafe
Date & Time:
01/25/2009 - 17:00 - 21:00
Description:
Join us on occasional Sundays for music and dance from some of the many Afro-Latino communities in the New York region. A mainstay of the Cafe is Cuban rumba -- a celebratory, sometimes raucous, percussion-driven music and dance complex that originated in Cuba's urban barrios in the 19th century, and that has been played in parks and on street corners in New York City for at least 50 years.
For more information or to suggest performers, contact the Afro-Latin Cafe committee at lknauer@umassd.edu. Light refreshment will be on sale.
