The Identidad Dance Project, a program by AcceptDANCE Inc., recently brought vibrant, interactive dance performances to Barnum School, Waltersville School, and Park City Magnet School in Bridgeport, CT. Led by Sindy Folgar, Founder and Executive Director, and featuring six talented Latinx dancers, the project celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with styles like ballet, contemporary, hip hop, cumbia, and salsa.
