Sunday Story Time: Danza! Amalia Hernández and El Ballet Folklórico De México

Happy Women’s History Month! In today’s read-aloud, we’ll meet Amalia Hernández, a young girl in Mexico who loves to dance! In 1952, Amalia founded the Ballet Folklórico de México, bringing traditional Mexican folk dances to the stage, travelling the country and the world! Come hear her story in Danza!, written and illustrated by Duncan Tonatiuh. After the story, make your own Ballet Folklórico dancer! Join us every Sunday in person at the Museum for story time and crafts! Each class includes a special hello song, silly dances and games, a story book reading, and a craft to do after the story.
