The Dominican National Ballet presents its anniversary gala, “The Colors of Dance” on Friday, 29 April and Saturday, 30 April at 8:30pm. An additional show is scheduled for Sunday, 1 May at 6:30pm.
Go early and view the art exhibit by French artist Michel Bizet at the National Gallery also at the Palacio de Bellas Artes. The sampling contains a series of works linking Bizet to American abstract expressionism. Bizet first visited the DR in 1995, and then set up shop in Las Terrenas where he built several commercial plazas, including Casa Linda and Plaza Taina.
Then go for dinner in one of the nearby Gazcue restaurants and return for the evening National Ballet performance at the Palacio de Bellas Artes, at Maximo Gomez and Independencia.
