The Afro-Brazilian tradition of Maracatu Rural originates in the sugar plantations outside the city of Recife, Brazil. The art form is a visually striking, amazing combination of Indigenous, African and European influences. Passport Project hosts Brazilian and U.S. artists, Myra Rasmussen, Ana Paula Jones and Cacau Arcoverde, who will lead participants through creating costumes for Parade, and learning dance and rhythms of this rich tradition.
Camp will run May 14- June 9
