About this Event
Celebrate the powerful influence of Texas and the American Southwest on the rise of flamenco during Hollywood’s Golden Age. This immersive two-day event brings history to life through costumes, film clips, expert commentary, and live performance, showcasing the artistry of Texas-born performers who helped shape flamenco’s image in early 20th-century cinema.
