>  Seattle Fandango Project (SFP) takes as its original model the  

> fandango celebration of Veracruz, Mexico, in which music, singing,  

> and dancing are used to generate a spirit of convivencia—living/ 

> being together—that helps build communication and trust. Since the  

> 1990s, musicians and community organizers in Veracruz and California  

> have expanded the scope of convivencia to build a transnational  

> network of artists and community workers through what has become  

> known as Fandango Sin Fronteras. SFP seeks to draw upon this network  

> and its community-building practices to work for social justice and  

> forge relationships between diverse institutions, communities, and  

> individuals in Washington State.
