Every year in May,
Centro Espanol de Washington, DC holds their Feria de Sevilla.
If you have a weakness for Spanish dancing, Spanish food, the
Spanish language, or Spanish fun (or any combination of those),
this is a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
Granted, it's not quite like
the real Feria in the beautiful city of Seville, but at least
you get a taste of this wonderful culture and a unique tradition.
This is also the DC area's biggest local flamenco event. There
are casetas (kiosks) representing each region of Spain where
you can buy authentic Spanish food. Some of the local dance schools
have casetas where you can dance non-stop to Sevillanas music.
Throughout the day, some of the local dance companies perform
on the main stage.
If you are in the DC area
and are interested in things Spanish, I recommend you visit Centro
Espanol's web site at http://www.cewdc.org. |
