Danzas en Tarima is an innovative festival of dance storytelling presented by HAPAA and Another River Interdisciplinary Ensemble, showcasing powerful choreographic works that explore migration, identity, community, and resistance.
Held on a striking 8ft x 8ft platform, this festival challenges performers to transform a small square into a powerful site of expression and reflection. It brings together artists from different cultural and dance traditions, offering audiences a dynamic and emotional journey through movement and narrative.
This first edition of the festival is part of HAPAA’s mission to uplift Latinx and immigrant voices through the performing arts and create spaces where personal and collective stories can be shared on stage.
“Danzas en Tarima is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance”
