Bloco De Carnaval

Bloco de Carnaval is a series of workshops for the community to create and learn things that will contribute to two main events. It is an opportunity for dance, bright colours, food, costumes and to celebrate happiness.

Everyone knows what drums are, even Ricardo Stuani&#x27;s drums from cool bands like Mundi trio and Tumbao. This talented musician will make you heat up the beats with his drums and warm up for a carnival community party. Parents help is required.B﻿loco de CarnavalThe traditional carnival around the world is one of the most popular expressions. The “Blocos de Carnaval” is a family and community celebration independent of social class or any distinction of culture, that is why It is everyone&#x27;s party. Different groups can share their passion for music, dancing, and happiness. “Blocos de Carnaval” started in Brazil around 1800; it is a group of people who can join the same rhythm, colours, and costumes (or t-shirts). A few “Blocos de Carnaval” are formed with kids, elders, young people, families, etc. To engage people and show how unique their contribution and participation can be for the Central Christchurch community, we will create workshops with masks, instruments building, drums classes, costumes, puppets, decoration, and dancing classes.At the end of the workshops, which is a good place to learn about this tradition, we will have a Pre carnival event for kids on the 17th of December with performances, decorations, music, and many activities. The workshops and events also intend to teach a bit about this theme. Please feel free to invite everybody :) Proudly sponsored by Fletcher Living and Gap Filler.
