MOVE FOR THE MOVEMENT

Dine & Dance to Support the CU Immigration Forum

[ February 27, 2016] The CU Immigration Forum (IF) invites you to come out and dance or learn how in support of their work in the community on Saturday, February 27th at the University YMCA. Attendees will enjoy an afternoon of Salsa, Bachata, and Cumbia dance instruction led by local professional Latin dance instructors, Shawn Mendez and Uli Ayala.
