Baila reading

Followed by dacing activities

Arequipa 2025, 
On the coast, in the Andes and the Amazon, dancing safeguards the steps, rhythms, wardrobes, and characters that honour our origins. There are so many dances in Peru that they could not fit into a book. Baila gathers 25 of them and their main features. It is a starting point that pays homage to our diversity, our nature, and our history. We invite you to the presentation of Baila, a step closer to our cultural heritage. We will enjoy a live reading event coordinated by Arequipa’s Bibliobici, followed by dancing activities for all ages.
