MJM & Emiliano Messiez Present: A Night of Argentine Tango

Join us for a magical evening of Argentine tango with Latin Grammy Nominated artist Emiliano Messiez in one of New York City’s most historic and enchanting settings.

The night begins with a tango class open to all levels, led by professional world champions tango dancers Mariana Parma & Leonardo Sardella, who will guide you through the elegant steps and passionate rhythm of this iconic dance. After the class, enjoy a dazzling performance by the dancers, followed by a live concert featuring the Emiliano Messiez Tango Group.

With rich, expressive music and the timeless allure of tango, this unique event promises to transport you straight to the heart of Buenos Aires. Whether you’re an experienced dancer or simply curious, come and be part of this unforgettable celebration of music, movement, and culture.

This project is made possible in part with funds from Creative Engagement and UMEZ Arts Engagement, a regrant program supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs (DCLA) in partnership with the City Council, and administered by LMCC.

@LMCC’s Manhattan Arts Grants support hundreds of arts projects in all disciplines, serving communities from Inwood to The Battery.
