California Heritage in Dance: The Legend of Josefa

“In 1976, Maxine Mahon, CBC Director, inaugurated the California Heritage Project. The Project features California – its history, composers, artists, and its dancers, with ballet stories drawn from historical narratives of San Diego and California.

This year’s performance of “The Legend of Josefa” by the California Ballet Company at Chula Vista Bayside Park, May 7, 2006, 2:00pm, will be the first installment of the newly reconstituted California Heritage Project. The outdoor, bayside setting was chosen both because of the aesthetic quality and because of the part that the waterfront played in the city’s history and in this particular story.”
