Cleveland International Folk Festival - Page 2 June 26, 2011 Wade Oval, University Circle
Performing next at the 22nd annual International Folk Festival was the Sho-Jo-Ji Japanese Dancers.
Sponsored by the Cleveland Japanese American Citizens League, the Sho-jo-ji Japanese Dancers have preserved, taught, and performed Japanese classical and folk dances in Ohio for over fifty years. The dancers wear the traditional costume of Japan, a vibrant kimono, dress, which is tied with a brocaded obi, belt.
The next act was from the Julia de Burgos Cultural Arts Center Dancers representing Puerto Rico.
The Center is dedicated to preserving and sharing the Puerto Rican and Caribbean traditions through the teaching and practice of the visual, performing, and literary arts. Its vision is to create a dynamic, self-sufficient, cultural arts center showcasing the richness of Puerto Rican and Caribbean Culture.
