“People of all Colors: Four Colombian Regions,” will include Colombian folkloric dances rooted in Indigenous, African, and Spanish traditions. The event commemorates Delia Zapata Olivella, who founded the Fundaci\u00f3n Delia Zapata Olivella Palenque in the 1940s. Delia studied under Katherine Dunham in the US. Her troupe traveled the world visiting Peking, Paris, Moscow spreading the knowledge of Colombia\u2019s African and Indigenous popular culture through its music and dance traditions. Her school of dance has been internationally recognized for researching and teaching these traditions in Colombia and the world. Her daughter, Edelmira Massa Zapata, now directs the Fundaci\u00f3n Delia Zapata Olivella and is commemorating her mother and her global legacy.<\/p>\n

Vanderbilt University<\/span><\/a>‘s Library now hosts the Delia Zapata Olivella archives, a diverse collection that has been preserved and recently digitized and made openly accessible. It includes her personal papers, scrapbooks of worldwide travels, manuscripts of dance steps, interviews, and audio-visual materials. In an effort to share this remarkable Afro-Colombian and indigenous collection,\u00a0Vanderbilt CLACX<\/span><\/a>\u00a0supports visiting researchers from Colombia and elsewhere. These resources have served as a basis for the Foundation\u2019s creative works, costumes, and interpretations and while at Vanderbilt the group will explore and help curate the materials in the archive in Special Collections.<\/p>\n
