The Savannah community is invited to learn about the exciting aspects of Cuban dance and music from expert, Daybert Linares.

Born and raised in Cuba, Linares is a Ph.D. student of contemporary Latin American literature with a focus on the Caribbean at the University of Maryland, College Park. His expertise and passion for Cuban dance and music makes him one of the leading Cuban dance instructors and advocates on the East coast. Additionally, Daybert regularly manages his blog, "Son y Casino," dedicated to the proliferation of Cuban music and dance. Established in 1890, Savannah State University is the oldest public historically black college or university in Georgia and the oldest institution of higher learning in the city of Savannah. The university’s 4,800 students select majors from 30 undergraduate and six graduate programs in three colleges — Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, Business Administration and Sciences and Technology — and the School of Teacher Education.
