MDCA Away From Home: FUNDarte presents “La Velada” by Marta Gálvez

FUNDarte, the City of Aventura, and Miami-Dade County Auditorium present “La Velada” by Marta Galvez on Friday, October 24 and Saturday, October 25, 2026 at 8:00 pm at the Aventura Arts & Cultural Center.

“La Velada” explores the meeting point between flamenco tradition and the present moment. Inspired by the legacy of flamenco and those who danced before her, Marta Gálvez transforms inherited movement and memory into a personal, contemporary expression—rooted in history yet unmistakably of today.

Born in Córdoba, Gálvez began her flamenco training at age three and earned a degree in Spanish Dance from the Professional Dance Conservatory. She later studied on scholarship at the Andalusian Dance Center and has performed with leading companies including David Coria, María Pagés, Úrsula López, José Porcel, and Juan Carlos Avecilla. Her honors include the Outstanding Dancer Prize (2015) and the Young Flamenco Artists Award from the Provincial Council of Córdoba (2023).
