2nd Annual Polynesian Festival


The Second Annual Polynesian Festival was so much fun! There were so many booths to visit while the Polynesian Dancers performed. I went with my roommates and other friends from our GEL class. Some of us took pictures at the Free Photo Booth set up. There was also free food, that I did not get, because the line was really long.
            The Dancing part of this festival was the most powerful because dancing is a way Polynesians express their culture and religious beliefs of their ancestry. Each chant and certain step you make to create a sound has a different meaning that can be depicted through the dancing. After watching this dancing and chanting part, I had to go to a class soon after the festival.
