Puerto Rican Cultural Center presents...
Gran Encuentro Ancestral - Garifuna & Loiza Cultural Exchange

A lively Afro-Arawak exchange of ancestral music, dance, and tambores featuring:
* Los Hermanos Ayala
* Garifuna Grupo Walagante
* Puerto Rican Folkloric Dance
 
We are excited to share this experience as we build kinship! Loiza's culture is influenced by West African and Indigenous Arawak traditions, and those connections are being explored through a musical exchange with the Garifuna who are themselves an Afro-Arawak people!
