The Third Annual West Valley Island Cultural Festival, June 14, 2015
Arizona - The Third Annual West Valley Island Cultural Festival celebrates
island music and dance performances; an educational workshops for music,
dance, and lectures. The festival will feature talented musicians,
teachers, and dance performers, offering attendees an enjoyable
experience. It is celebration of island/folk dance and music around the
world.
Also, an added feature to this event will be a "Singles Corner", for
singles to meet other singles. Single women are encouraged to wear their
flower behind the right ear in keeping with the Hawaiian culture to let
men know that they are available.
Also, something new that will take place is the presentation of awards!
Lifetime Achievement Awards as well as Merit Awards will be
presented to some individuals and groups for their contributions to island
dances and music. Oftentimes, island/folk dance and music is often
overlooked and does not get the recognition/attention that it deserves.
Island dancers/musicians spend a lot of time learning and practicing, as
well as money paying for lessons, costumes, traveling to the islands or
workshops to continue their education in dance/music. Learning dance and
playing musical instruments takes a lot of time, dedication, and hard
work. And for this reason, it is time to award island dancers and
musicians past and present.
