I am interested in finding out the process of getting a Peruvian group started.
I was born in the United States but my father was born in Peru, my mother was born in Colombia. I see that you have a Colombian page but not a Peruvian one. I have attended this festival before and was inspired by all the different culture presentations and want to be a part of it as well. Please contact me at 334 8513 or e-mail me at estrellanne@hotmail.com at your earliest convenience.
Thank you,

Wondering how to get people involved with Peru cusine and dances. This is another year I don’t find my country in the festival.
Please correct – this year’s event – 2012 – is the 41st Annual NOT 40th.
Thank you.
