It’s been such a great weekend at the 6th Annual Texas Latino/a/x Contemporary Dance Festival! Join us for closing night this evening at 6pm at @matchouston ! The closing night roster includes returning artist @camilamem , who will be showing “Patria Herida (Wounded Homeland).” In this work, dancers embody the contradictions of loving a country marked by both beauty and brutality. Tickets are still available at www.matchouston.org! #yaydance #houdance #houarts #pilotdanceproject #latinxchoreography

Opening night was such a huge success! We are excited to be back at 8pm at @matchouston with @cy__bonn and @emrrushing as they share “Home Body,” an exploration of the body’s both a stable and unstable anchor, incorporating sounds and behaviors from our worlds that bring a sense of home in a frequently changing landscape. Tickets are still available at www.matchouston.org! #yaydance #houdance #houarts #pilotdanceproject #latinxchoreography

We are excited to have such a wonderful roster of artists this year! The Sunday, March 29 program incudes @stephv_cruz with “M & C,” a work that asks, “Are you male enough? Are you feminine enough? Women are meant to be meek and quiet. With that being said, don’t you get tired?” Join us this weekend at @matchouston ! #yaydance #houdance #houarts #pilotdanceproject #latinchoreography
