ABOUT THE ATLANTA FLAMENCO FESTIVAL
While Atlanta has enjoyed concerts by world-class flamenco artists for decades, thanks to the work by theaters, such as the Rialto Center of the Arts, the Atlanta Flamenco Festival devotes a multi-week series solely to the art of flamenco, with the intent to deliver a variety of programming by a variety of artists, to the general public over a two-week period. Such a showcase will demonstrate the range of flamenco that is enjoyed in Spain and other major U.S. cities, during flamenco festivals that have been in production for over 20 years. This festival not only brings an influx of flamenco artists to Atlanta, but it provides an anchor for this art form in the South, as no other city in this region presents a flamenco festival.

The Atlanta Flamenco Festival will provide arts and culture programming to enhance the knowledge of people of all ages in metro-Atlanta so that they may experience new perspectives in flamenco, Spanish history, U.S. Civil Rights, and personal emotional expression.

In 2022, the festival features two performances by Isaac Tovar and his company on Sept. 10, 2022, and another performance by La Macarena de Jerez on Sept. 20, 2022. Artists will also teach classes while in Georgia. See more details at http://www.atravearts.com
