Fall in love with Argentine Tango!

Join us at the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21, 1055 Marginal Road, on Saturday, February 4 from 11 a.m. to noon to experience Discover Culture: Argentine Tango.

Come learn this romantic form of dance just in time for St. Valentine’s Day! Born in Buenos Aires at the end of the 19th century, Argentine Tango is designed to express the rhythm and feeling of tango music; a blend of sounds from European, African and Criollo cultures. The shared experiences of love, loss, hope, disillusionment and renewal are expressed through this passionate music.

This FREE dance workshop is led by, and presented in partnership with, Tangonova.

No experience is necessary and all are welcome! Please bring smooth-soled glidable shoes for dancing (rubber grip soles are not recommended).

This workshop is presented in English.

Discover Culture is a community partnership program designed to share Canada’s cultural diversity through hands-on learning.
