Movimiento Cultural

By viewing performances by master artists, participants will truly understand how the Afro-Puerto Rican/Caribbean music is an integral part of the culture, that has passed down from one generation to the next. The Afro-Puerto Rican/Caribbean Bomba is the oldest Puerto Rican dance and music style rooted in resistance and dating back to the days of slavery.

Movimiento Cultural Afro-Continental (MCAC), Inc. will perform live with Bomba music and dance!
