Grupo Bembé did a workshop about the history of both rythms and then entretained the audience with two performances. As part on the intermision we did an Open-Mic Poertry in which Melissa Fontañez performed one of her poems. People had a blast learning how to dance Bomba & Plena and performing poetry at the stage.
