Carpathia Folk Dance Ensemble

Founded in 2011, Carpathia Folk Dance Ensemble is D.C.’s only multi-ethnic central and eastern European folk dance performance group. The ensemble currently performs dances from Ukraine, Romania, Poland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Moldova, and of the Roma/Gypsy people. The group is all-volunteer and comes from a variety of backgrounds including immigrants from countries represented to people who do not even have ethnic background from our countries. What brings the group together is a passion for dance, music, and sharing cultures with audiences throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Carpathia Folk Dance Ensemble is a not-for-profit that strives in its mission to present and preserve the cultural dance of the countries covered.
