Seattle Center Festál: BrasilFest on August 17
Join the fun and discover the cultural arts, heritage, and traditions that are the centerpiece of BrasilFest, a family-oriented free event, showcasing the lively culture and spirit of Brazil.
This year, the spotlight shines on the resilience, achievements, and cultural influence of Brazilian women, with the theme “Brazilian Women: A Ccelebrate the extraordinary women who have shaped Brazil’s past and continue to redefine its future.
Festival highlights include a special panel discussion on Brazilian Women Entrepreneurs, coordinated by Larissa Prates and Jonathan Batista. Additionally, don’t miss an insightful panel on Brazilian Health Care Professionals, sharing valuable knowledge from Brazilian health care
professionals working in Seattle.
There will also be a variety of musical entertainment, plenty of energetic dance, delicious food, and authentic crafts, plus kid's activities.
BrasilFest was established in 1999 by Brazilian immigrants and husband and wife duo, Eduardo and Ana Paula Mendonça, to share Brazilian arts and traditions during the week of Brazilian Folklore Day. This is unique because the holiday isn’t widely celebrated outside of Brazil, yet is
an important day to educate and share Brazilian folkloric traditions.
BrasilFest is part of Seattle Center Festál, a year-round series of 25 free cultural festivals. Learn more about Festál (seattlecenter.com/festal).
