Seneca Nation Dancers at SBU Monday
The public is invited to enjoy the “Dance & Culture” performances of the Seneca Nation Youth Dancers and the Damietta Center Student Clubs (ASIA, LASO and the STEP Team) on the St. Bonaventure University campus Monday. The program will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in the Doyle Dining Room. Snacks and refreshments will be served.
The Seneca Youth Dancers are a school group organization from the Salamanca City Central School District. Seneca social dances are taught to students ranging from pre-K through 12th grade. The mission of the organization is to preserve and revitalize Seneca culture through traditional songs and dance. It is important to The Seneca Youth Dancers to educate Seneca and non-Seneca communities of the rich Seneca culture. The group has been re-established within the school district for five years, and has performed at a number of events throughout the country, including Heard Museum in Phoenix, Ariz., The New York State Superintendent’s Conference in New York City, and a world peace music video by artist Nassiri in New York City.
The mission of the Damietta Center is to provide all students with an enriched appreciation for differences through diversity exposure. ASIA (Asian Students in Action) is the SBU student group that focuses on the cultural and political concerns of the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. The members are focused on celebrating the rich diversity within the Asian students on campus.
Cultivating the artistic manifestations of Latino Americans is LASO (Latino American Student Organization). This student group also recognizes the need to appreciate the rich diversity of Latino multi-cultures. The SBU STEP Team celebrates diversity and talent in performance of rhythm, beat and dance.
Monday’s event is sponsored by the Damietta Center, Franciscan Center for Social Concern, Mt. Irenaeus and the School of Education.
