BrasArte is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the traditional dance and music of Brazil and to developing opportunities for cultural exchange between dancers and musicians of all ages from Brazil and the United States.
FOUNDING DIRECTOR
Conceição Damasceno, professional dancer, teacher and choreographer, is the founder and president BrasArte.
"I grew up in a family of twelve children. My father was a musician and community leader. When he died I was one month old, and my mother had to raise twelve children alone. For us, art was a luxury we could not afford. I was surrounded by art, but forbidden to pursue it. My brother had to run away from home to become a musician. I founded BrasArte because I felt art should be for everyone. I want to help all children and young adults to realize their creaitve spirits and achieve their artistic dreams. BrasArte is a tribute to my father, who pursued his art against all odds."
PROJECTS
BrasArte has organized many cultural exchange projects, including the Borboletas, the first and only children's dance troupe in the Bay Area. BrasArte has also sponsored many Brazilian cultural events, including bringing Ilê Aiyê and Nicinha Raizes de Santo Amaro to the Bay Area, an annual Yemaja Festival and an annual Lavagem celebration (see below for details).
