2 Week The San Pedro Festival of the Arts Dance Applications OPEN
Friday, July 15, 2022, 8:00 AM PDT
Category: Events

The San Pedro Festival of the Arts is a free family event, in the past featuring Dance, Music & Visual Arts/Crafts Booths. This year, our 16th, we approach it similar to last years- live, but also a film division. The festival was again awarded a Department of Cultural Affairs, City of Los Angeles Festival Grant. We are relocating parks as the one from last year is unavailable, so more details to come. We will be recording performances to share on the internet and all performances will be live and free to the public, but with restricted audiences unless the Pandemic disappears. There is pay for professional companies as in the past.
We are interested in all dance forms performed by professional companies (usually about 20 selected, but was 28 last year) including traditional ballet and modern as well as ethnic dance forms, tap, fusion, jazz, and hip-hop. Each day also includes 2-3 pre-professional companies or schools.
You can see more about previous festivals at triartsp.com. A 2 week encore of last year's festival only running till July 10 is vimeo.com/showcase/2021sanpedroartsfest
