The Brazilian Arts and Cultural Engagement (B.R.A.C.E.)
Minority Help’s Brazilian Arts and Cultural Engagement (The B.R.A.C.E.) Project has been designed to promote the Brazilian heritage while increasing cultural awareness and diversity.
The B.R.A.C.E. sponsors year-round art-based programs and culturally unique activities to empower the Brazilian cultural vitality locally. The project promotes language and cultural workshops, weekly cultural heritage expositions of drama, poetry, storytelling, joke-telling, popular music concerts, arts and craft labs, snapshots of community life, art demonstrations, typical food contest, parades, folk festivals, competitions, public interviews, typical dance performances, theatrical exhibitions, artistic performances, and other cultural activities and celebrations.
In 2019, Minority Help will be sponsoring the Brazilian Folks Festival Tour. The festival will be visiting major Brazilian communities across the U.S., including Marietta/GA, Boston/MA, Newark/NJ, San Diego/CA, and Pompano Beach/FL. The festival will have live music and dance performances, ethnic food, capoeira show, hands-on workshops, local business exposition, and celebration of the Brazilian arts and cultural heritage. Join us and learn about the exciting Brazilian heritage!
This year, the weekend will be jam-packed with Brazilian folk performers and local artists. It's a super-family-friendly festival, with concerts, dancing, workshops, jamming, an artisan marketplace, tasty food, and lots of hands-on activities. The Brazilian Folks Festival will begin on June 15-16 in Marietta/GA.
