Since its inception in 2013 in Los Angeles and expansion to Phoenix in 2017, the BlakTinx Dance Festival, curated by The Latina Dance Project, has evolved into an annual celebration of dance. This inclusive event offers a platform for diverse artists selected through a juried application process. It goes beyond performances, offering master classes, mentorship, and invaluable touring opportunities. Through these initiatives, the festival fosters artistic growth, cultural exchange, and community connections, weaving a vibrant tapestry of dance culture across both cities.
