Biographie du groupe

Raíces RI was born from the heart of the Colombian diaspora in Rhode Island. Our purpose is to ensure that new generations preserve and live out the traditions of their ancestors through dance. We have proudly represented Colombia in various states across the United States and have reached international stages, most notably through our participation in the Moreira International Festival in Portugal in 2024. We are culture, history, and the living legacy of our homeland abroad.
