Get your best outfit ready for the Masked Ball at the San Carlos National Museum. This is a free event celebrating historical dance. You’ll dance and have a great time. Take note!
During February, this museum in Mexico City will have a program of activities called “Carnival of Love,” which will include everything from workshops to a dance on Museum Night.
Let’s start with the workshops. In one of them, you can make your own baroque mask. It lasts two sessions, during which you can create your mask from scratch. The next sessions are on February 15 and 22 at 1:00 p.m.
Now, if dancing is your thing, save the dates of February 14 and 15. Between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., there will be a workshop on Renaissance and Baroque dances, where you will learn more about social dancing and different choreographies. But wait, that’s not all.
The Masked Ball at the San Carlos Museum will be held on Museum Night
The masquerade ball will take place on Wednesday, February 25, at 6:00 p.m. A press release stated that attendees may wear Renaissance attire and masks.
During the event, the La Forlana dance company will perform the pieces “Cupido” and “Passacaille de Persée.” Invite your special someone and go together to this event that will transport you to another era. All activities require prior registration, and the sign-up process will be announced at a later date. Here are the museum’s social media accounts.
