Austin, Texas Bomba: The Celebrando 2014 - Salsa & Bomba Festival - Saturday June 21, 2014

 The Celebrando 2014 - Salsa and Bomba Festival

Saturday, June 21, 2014, 7pm-11:30pm 




THIS IS THE BIG ONE! Join Puerto Rican Folkloric Dance as we celebrate our rich culture with our annual Salsa & Heritage Festival. This year's celebration brings ancestral Bomba traditions to Austin with Bomba Master and Elder, and LP Artist, Jorge Emmanuelli Náter -- and members of his group -- who will join PRFDance in an exciting joint performance. Bring your dancing shoes and join us in a Bombazo (Bomba Dance)!

Our heritage festival will also feature the hottest Salsa in Central Texas with Orquesta Trabuko, and comida criolla (food for sale) by Chago's Caribbean Cuisine.

We will once again welcome artisans from Texas and beyond who will be presenting their original creations. (** SEE CALL FOR ARTISANS BELOW. **)

The Celebrando 2014 - Salsa and Bomba Festival will take place on June 21, 2014 at the Ballroom of the Jewish Community Campus, 7300 Hart Lane, Austin, TX 78731. Doors will open at 7:00pm. Come early and grab a table, visit the artisans, eat, dance, relax, and celebrate -- Puerto Rican style! Admission: $15 Advance/$18 Door, $7 children (12 and under), 2 and under
free. Tickets on sale later this Spring.


Celebrando 2014 is made possible in part by support from APRISA of San Antonio and Chagos Caribbean Cuisine, and, through awards from the Texas Commission on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, Artworks. This year's Festival is also sponsored in part with funding and support through the City of Austin Economic Development Department/Cultural Arts Division which believes an investment in the Arts is an investment in Austin's future.

Get warmed up at our upcoming Bombazo Experience, March 22!
