A group of young girls in flowing traditional white dresses performs a traditional Dominican dance outside St. Rose of Lima Church. Their movements, captured mid-spin, and the elegance of their attire reflect the continued preservation of folkloric traditions passed down with pride through generations. Performance takes place during one of the first Dominican Day Parades.
