The four-week event kicked off on Sunday and runs through Oct. 12.
Among the groups is the Mexican Folkloric Dance Company, which is celebrating 42 years.
Artistic director José Luis Ovalle González said Mexican folkloric dance is influenced by dance styles from around the world – including France, Africa, Asia, and of course Spain. "So that developed about 220 dance forms in the country," he said."Within a state, within a city, according to their neighborhoods, they dance differently from one another."
The Mexican Folkloric Dance Company is set to perform on Sept. 30 at the Global Peace Picnic at Humboldt Park. The Latino Dance Festival is happening at multiple venues. The next scheduled performances take place Sept. 23, Sept. 30, and Oct. 12.
