Our Lady of Victory Parish Festival
On Sunday, August 21, 2016, members of the Wawel Folk Ensemble took it international as the crossed the boarder to perform at Our Lady of Victory's Parish Festival in Chatham, Ontario, Canada.
The Afternoon was a perfect one for dancing with reasonable temperatures, low humidity and a pleasant breeze. For its performance, Wawel presented its Sieradz, Cieszyn, Biłgoraj, and Rzeszów suites along with its dances from Old Warsaw. To give the audience something a little different, the ensemble wore folk dress from the various regions being performed and provided a "Polish Fashion Show" interspersed between the numbers. Following the performance, the ensemble was treated to a wonderful Polish dinner prepared by members of the Church.
Wawel's next appearance will be at the Polish Day Parade held on Labor Day in Hamtramck, Michigan.
