Vermont Nepali Cultural Heritage Dance Group
Bhutanese Nepali Cultural Heritage Dance
Mentor Artist: Neeru Cvakoti
At the Old North End Community Center in Burlington, over 20 dancers ages 4-18 take stand spaced apart and listen to instructions in Nepali from mentor artist and expert dancer Neeru Cvakoti. Founded in 2016, the group rehearses twice a week and provides a supported space for Bhutanese Nepali youth to meet, learn about their cultural heritage, and ultimately share it with the broader community.
