content: The Great Basin Basque Dancers are composed of two groups: the Elko Arinak and Ruby Mountain Ardi Baltza Basque Dancers who have come together to perform at the Folklife Festival. The group is currently composed of twenty dancers aged 13 to 28 who have grown up performing together. They work to include as many different traditional styles as possible, while also incorporating some of their own styles to the choreography.
