What would the world be like without salsa, tango, merengue or other types of Latin dancing? Indeed, what kind of world would this be without the arts and young people interested in them? Those concerns are the main focus of a local San Diego group that needs our help, Young Audiences of San Diego. Young Audiences of San Diego believes the world desperately needs workers and leaders who are creative, disciplined and visionary. The arts—music, dance, theater and the visual arts—foster those qualities in today’s students and tomorrow’s workforce.
For 45 years, Young Audiences of San Diego (YASD) has dedicated itself to integrating the arts into the education and lives of all children of our region through an extraordinary range of high quality performances, residencies and workshops to help our young people identify their cultural roots and discover their creative wings.
In celebration of its 45th season, Young Audiences of San Diego is hosting its fourth annual Summer Salsa fundraiser Aug 23, from 7 to 10 pm at NTC Promenade’s McMillin Event Center at Liberty Station in Point Loma.
The evening includes a 13-piece band, an expansive wood dance floor, and performances by Alma Latina and Mamboleo Pro of “A Time To Dance” Studio.
The price of admission also includes a catered dinner buffet, a no-host bar and unlimited water… Not to mention the satisfaction of knowing that you are supporting a great local non-profit!
This fundraiser typically sells tickets for $40, but they’ve agreed to a special price to encourage the salsa community to participate: ONLY $20.00 WITH AN RSVP IN ADVANCE!!!
Please visit The San Diego Salsa and Latin Dancing Meetup Group page for the event and follow the instructions to obtain the special pricing (ie you’ll need to email or call and mention “Ritmo Bello/Meetup” when you purchase.)
Please help support our kids access the arts!!!
