Folkdancers in Israel

Brigham Young University’s Folkdancers were recently part of the pageantry of the city of Haifa’s first Folklore Festival. Performing before 5,000 spectators, the BYU students were the only American representatives in the celebration of Israel’s 25th anniversary, which attracted over 300 dancers and musicians from eight countries. The appearances in Israel were the climax of a monthlong tour which has taken the student dancers to performances in Spain and Greece.
