We are excited to be honoring several remarkable Las Vegas residents who are dedicated to teaching, performing, and building community through Brazilian arts and culture. Our honorees have shared the rhythms and traditions of Brazil with audiences and students across the city. Through dance and music classes, live performances, and educational workshops, they help preserve important cultural expressions and create welcoming spaces for people of all backgrounds to experience Brazilian music, movement, and heritage.

Their contributions have strengthened the artistic fabric of Las Vegas and ensured that Brazilian culture continues to thrive in the region. Many students and performers have benefited from their mentorship and passion, making them not only artists but also cultural ambassadors. Honoring these three individuals recognizes a lifetime of dedication to the arts and celebrates the lasting impact they have had on the community.
