Panketzaliztli: An Aztec Celebration of the Season

Hosted By
Shawna B.

Details
Kalpulli Ehekatl/Ehekatl Aztec Dancers and Friends present Panketzaliztli, a theatrical performance in three acts. The presentation, an Aztec celebration of the season, draws upon Mesoamerican creation myths and the history behind traditional holiday customs and includes a lyrically performed version of the Panketzaliztli (Alzamiento de los Estandartes, or Raising of the Banners) celebration, a retelling of the history of Yankwik Tletl (Fuego Nuevo, or the New Fire Ritual, performed during Panketzaliztli every 52 years), and, as a closing act, the Serpent of Fire Dance.
For those who are feeling up to it we can grab a drink or some food near by after the show!
Admission: $12
