Who we are

At Flamenco Arts International, we want people to experience flamenco like never before. We’re a women-founded, San Francisco-based 501(c)(3) organization with roots in New York City and Spain. We create transformative, innovative experiences that both celebrate the legacy of flamenco and explore the possibilities of the art form. By combining unexpected technology with a diverse community of impassioned artists, our goal is to not only honor where flamenco came from – but also look to the future of where it is going.

Events

LA CLAVE Y LA LLAVE

Abriendo Puertas

Unlock the fundamentals of flamenco culture with master artist Elena Andújar. Discover how flamenco reflects the emotions, struggles, and joys of the people who have shaped it, and gain a deeper understanding of this vibrant, living tradition. Open to dancers, musicians, and flamenco lovers alike!

‍**Sessions will be held in Spanish with English translation via Zoom**

LETRA DATABASE PROJECT

Preserving Flamenco through the power of technology

An oral tradition, flamenco song lyrics have not been systematically collected, organized, and historicized. FAI is teaming up with Stanford University to digitize flamenco lyrics in an effort to preserve this cultural heritage.
