The Sherwood Center for the Arts is excited to present their 11th Annual Family Matinee Series! This family favorite tradition brings unique cultural experiences to the Sherwood community.

Ballet Papalotl boasts one of the largest repertoires of any Northwest folkloric troupe. They perform traditional, regional folkloric dance from across Mexico, incorporating traditional dress and adhering to authentic dance and choreography.

Most Papalotl costumes are brought from Mexico or hand made by dancers and their families to showcase the traditional art and craft that goes into each regional Mexican dress. The time and attention to detail that we put into our dance and costuming reflects the multi-faceted traditions of Mexican folkloric dance, drawing from the pre-Columbus native traditions as well as diverse European and Afro-Caribbean influences.
