About this Spotlight
We’re partnering with Northwest Folklife for an evening of performances by Melody Institute, Brazilian Swag, Gansango Dance and Dunava Balkan Choir.
Staged at the built-in amphitheater of the Salish Steps at the bottom of Overlook Walk, the Spotlight series highlights talented artists and offers audiences a gateway to explore the diverse arts and culture scene of the region.
