Showcasing regional and international performances in music, dance, visual arts, theater, and comedy, the two-week extravaganza includes free, donation-only as well as low-cost ticketed events.
Albert Syeles, Romanza’s co-founder and president, said the festival is an opportunity to showcase people, organizations and beautiful spaces dedicated to spreading joy through art.
