FlamencoLIC 2017

Queens, NY-based American Bolero Dance Company (ABDC) presents the second season of FlamencoLIC, a series of concerts featuring a variety of dance and music styles from Spain, taking place on June 9th and 10th at The Secret Theatre (44-02 23rd Street), located near the Companys base in the heart of Long Island Citys artists quarters.
