At the Cinco de Mayo Commemoration, they're some of the only traditional Mexican dancers performing on Cinco de Mayo proper here in the city; look for swirling skirts and maybe a bit of historical storytelling about the Battle of Puebla. Of course, on the weekend, a huge festival takes over Dolores Park, but tonight, if you're looking for a culturally oriented way to celebrate Mexico fending off the French, (We have nothing against tequila, but there is more to life.) check out these accomplished dancers.
