Home Port Festival Lures Audiences to Jaffa Port

Home Port Festival: 54 Choreographers in 33 Concerts at the Jaffa Port

The Home Port festival was initiated by the Amuta (which translates as the Choreographers Association or the Choreographers Society), an umbrella organization for fifty-four independent choreographers who draw from styles as varied as contemporary dance, flamenco, and belly dance.
