Carnaval at Notre Dame

Although it was a couple of weeks early, that didn't stop Notre Dame's Brazil group from celebrating Carnaval with style. The Brazil Club of Notre Dame went all out planning festivities to bring a little piece of Brazil to campus, and, of course, we had to take part in the fun! The first event was a showing of the film "O Samba Que Mora em Mim" (The Samba Within Me).

The next evening, the group joined the Brazil Club and many friends they made during their stay at Notre Dame for a Carnaval Celebration at Legend's. Complete with delicious food, great music, and even better company, the entire evening was a blast. After watching performances by the Flores do Samba Dance Company, based out of Bloomington, Indiana, everyone had a chance to join in the fun and get their groove on.

An enormous thank to the Brazil Club for everything they did for our Brazilian visitors during their stay at Notre Dame. The world is as small as it is large, and it was wonderful for them to have a taste of home so far away from it.
