Our summer has been a busy one we just wrapped up:
Our Dance Exchange Conference at the end of June 2024
Attended the 50th Anniversary of A.N.G.F (a national Folklorico Conference) , this year it was in Alburquerque where we also participated in a flash mob of La Negra in conjunction with the Mariachi Festival/Conference
We just returned form Cartagena, Colombia where we performed for several nights with other Folk groups from South America and Mexico, We proudly represented USA and COLORADO!!
*This was an adults only trip so we had some dancers help us out from other dance groups around Colorado. It is amazing to have folklorico friends and artists who make the culture, history and beauty of folklorico flurish in the the hearts of not only our youth and people, but also everyone around us!!

Grupo Folklórico del Pueblo was founded in 1996 by Velma, Sara, and Jimmy Newmoon Roybal. Since then the group has grown to be Pueblo's premiere folk dance group. We are a 501c3 non-profit corporation.
All students learn the history and cultural significance of the dances and costumes and the regions from which the dances originate. We are proud to incorporate dances and history that pertain to the New Mexican and Mexican American experience as well. We offer a complete program which includes dancing, traveling, and performing.
