Humboldt Lao Dancers

Humboldt Lao Dancers was formed in Spring 2016 to preserve Lao dance throughout the year, instead of the usual once a year performance at Lao New Year. Volunteers and parents of dancers have donated their time and commitment to keep Humboldt Lao Dancers open to the public and year round. The dance group strives to perform around Humboldt county and other areas of Northern California in order to promote diversity, cultural awareness, and to demonstrate the legacy and importance of Lao dance.
