Grupo Folclorico Colombiano Wepa
Directed by Maria Rico
Wepa is a dance group committed to promoting, representing, and sharing the traditional elements of Colombian folkloric dances which are influenced from Spanish, African and Native American Indigenous cultures.
We strive to become a folkloric dance company that prioritizes the artistry, artistic expression, and creativity of our members while incorporating the musical traditions, songs, dances, and other elements of Colombian folklore. In our practices and performances, we aim to celebrate the large cultural diversity in Colombia, respecting the importance of the regional cultures in Colombia; foster a highly collaborative and harmonious learning environment; strengthen our core values; and offer a space for anyone to embrace the customs and cultural traditions of the Colombian people, establishing ourselves as cultural ambassadors of their folklore.
