This unique show, sponsored by the Mountain Tribal Chapter of MECDA, a nation-wide non-profit cultural and dance association, will feature many talented professional performers.The dancers travel from cities throughout California to participate in this cultural event. The show focuses on ethnic, historic and folkloric dance forms from the nations along the fabled “Silk Road” trade routes of antiquity.
