BrasArte is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the traditional dance and music of Brazil and to developing opportunities for cultural exchange between dancers and musicians of all ages from Brazil and the United States. "I grew up in a family of twelve children. My father was a musician and community leader. When he died I was one month old, and my mother had to raise twelve childre

n alone. For us, art was a luxury we could not afford. I was surrounded by art, but forbidden to pursue it. My brother had to run away from home to become a musician. I founded BrasArte because I felt art should be for everyone. I want to help all children and young adults to realize their creaitve spirits and achieve their artistic dreams. BrasArte is a tribute to my father, who pursued his art against all odds."
