Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center hosted a historic Bomba exchange between Barcelona and Chicago that was supported through MacArthur's International Connections Fund to preserve the Afro-Puerto Rican dance and musical tradition.
These are the testimonials of Bomba con Buya (Chicago) and Mancha 'E Plátano (Barcelona) as they came together as part of Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center’s 50th Anniversary celebrations.
