Lunchtime Learning Hour: Salsa dance lessons

Tuesday 18 February 2025

1.00 – 1.45pm in Art Exchange

 Come along and learn Salsa! 

While on the dancefloor, we will also tell you about the role of dance and music in ‘Taking a Bow’ exhibition. 

Gisselle Giron Casas, curator of Taking a Bow, will introduce you to Salsa through teaching us some of its basic dance steps. She will also talk to us about the place this working class Latin American music has in Taking a Bow exhibition, and its important role in the coastal community of Callao, Peru. 

All welcome!
