Presenter Details

  • Name: Taranada
  • Taranada cultivates arts deeply rooted and reflective of diverse traditional cultures and serves the disadvantaged, institutionally marginalized, underserved, and misrepresented communities of Texas and the globe while educating and raising awareness of the Romani (Gypsy) population. Roma retain an Indian genetic, cultural and linguistic heritage and remain a misunderstood and largely invisible community globally. Taranada engages with Texas and international icons to bring understanding of the Romani culture, erase romanticized myths, create funding streams, and engage them in community life through the prism of music and dance. Taranada’s wellbeing and leadership skill workshops are geared towards youth, in particular the diverse and disadvantaged and incarcerated youth.
