Our educational and outreach programs fit perfectly with the CFB’s mission to create a passion for art through inspirational performances, enrich the lives of our audiences, and present to our community, visitors and tourists the unique beauty of the music, dance, costumes, and traditions of the Colombian culture. Not only does the CFB gives you the opportunity to request programming for your educational institution or community center but we also participate in private programs and educational initiatives.
