What is a Hafla?

In Arabic, ‘Hafla’ translates simply into a party. Our party includes Bellydance performances, music, open floor dancing, vending of Middle Eastern & bellydance goods and food (traditional Middle Eastern and American)!

What to expect?

The hafla is opened to all and is very family friendly. Opened floor dancing welcomes everyone to get up and dance, even if you don’t know how to belly dance. The mansion is also open to walk around and appreciate the talents of local artisans.

Optional:

Because of the informal setting, we welcome you to bring pillows or blankets to sit and relax on.
