Havana Hop! for families at Edmonds Center for the Arts Saturday

Havana Hop!

On Saturday, October 17 at 11:00am, ECA kicks off their annual Family Series with an all-ages performance and dance celebration called Havana Hop!

In Havana Hop!, the audience meets a young hip-hop dancer named Yelia, who travels to Havana, Cuba to visit her grandmother and add a salsa flavor to her own hip-hop style.

Dance along in this dynamic participation play – and journey with Yelia as she discovers the fun of her multicultural heritage!

Havana Hop! is presented as part of ECA’s 3-day artist residency with Paige Hernandez.

Following her Family Series performance, Ms. Hernandez will lead a Family Dance Party in the ECA gymnasium, teaching participants a simple hip-hop dance routine and partnering basics for salsa.

The routines are integrated with STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and are suitable for all ages.
