Flamenco Latino, and Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana will co-present two immersive, site specific performances on Sunday October 11, 2026 at Socrates Sculpture Park at 1:00PM and 2:00PM. This event celebrates Queens' vibrant Hispanic and Latino communities while bridging generations through the art of Flamenco. The event will feature a guided journey led by Aurora Reyes through the park, illuminating how flamenco has taken root and flourished within Queens' diverse communities. As audiences move through the park they will encounter a series of performance activations at different locations. Each stop will showcase students from Queens public elementary schools and Flamenco Latino's community classes, performing alongside professional dancers, musicians and teaching artist from both organizations. These performances will integrate movement, music and rhythm with the park's sculptures and natural landscape. The event culminates with a collective finale where the audience is invited to participate: clapping, singing and dancing together, sharing joy, connection and flamenco spirit.
