CasArt Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) Organization, formed by Mexican nationals residing in the Detroit metropolitan area.
We are proud to be ambassadors of the Mexican culture and are devoted to preserving and promoting our traditions, culture, music, and folklore for the younger generations.
Our History
The idea of CasArt Foundation was conceived by Luly del Real. She has dedicated part of her life transmitting the love for her native Mexico, through art and folklore, mainly folkdance. She started teaching a group of girls and boys, and “Joyas de México” the first dance group was created. Their students received not only artistic instruction from her but also her love and enthusiasm for transmitting the beauty of the Mexican heritage both, in the USA and Canada. The mothers of these children were also interested in receiving dance instruction and with time, the second dance group, “Matices” was created.
CasArt was founded by bringing these two folklore dance groups together. Luly del Real’s vision expanded by bringing other people together that shared her vision in teaching art. Other instructions in artistic expressions like, painting, music and theater have been added. Today, CasArt Foundation has grown to a talented group of dancers, and has attracted the experience and passion of creators, painters, curators and several volunteers that share Luly del Real’s vision.
