With support from the California Arts Council, Calidanza Dance Company will create a inclusive Mexican folk dance program that will serve the low income Latino community in Sacramento. We will offer creative cultural arts programming for kids and young adults in our community, create viable art in our community and present two professional productions in Sacramento and Sonoma counties. The project will bring much needed art to an undeserved community.
