African Dance Workshop Saturday Feb 23rd at HCA

By contributor,

February is Black History month. In recognition, HCA proudly announces the premiere event of our Arts Around the World cultural series.

This Saturday, February 23 at 1 p.m. join us for a super-fun pan-African dance workshop. It's free for students and HCA members, and just $10 for the public.

The series highlights artists and programs that otherwise might not be readily available in MetroWest. As a member of the Hispanic community and the HCA staff, I am particularly eager to open opportunities for people of color to share cultural heritage through the arts.
