Ballet Hispánico, the premier Latino dance organization in the United States, brings individuals and communities together to celebrate and explore Latino cultures through dance. Whether dancing on stage, in school, or in the street, Ballet Hispánico creates a space where few institutions are breaking ground.

The organization’s founder, National Medal of Arts recipient Tina Ramirez, sought to give voice to the Hispanic experience and break through stereotypes. Today, Ballet Hispánico is led by Eduardo Vilaro, an acclaimed choreographer and former member of the Company, whose vision of social equity, cultural identity and quality arts education for all drives its programs.

Ballet Hispánico, a role model in and for the Latino community, is inspiring creativity and social awareness in our neighborhoods and across the country by providing access to arts education.

“Our all-Latina choreographers program showcases the exciting voices of three choreographers. Ballet Hispánico’s commitment to presenting diverse perspectives has never been stronger or more necessary.” – Eduardo Vilaro, Artistic Director & CEO of Ballet Hispánico

This program is part of the 7th annual Take a Leap, Baltimore County Dance Celebration.
