+Samba Fest is an annual celebration of Caribbean-influenced music that takes place on Trinity's campus, and is open to and free for the public to attend. The all-day festival showcases music and dance from a variety of cultures, often with a focus on Brazil and Brazilian culture. The festival's main feature is live music performances by [[hartford|Hartford]]-based and area musicians as well as performers from other countries, including Brazil. Performances from Trinity students are also showcased, specifically [[trinity_samba_ensemble|Trinity Samba Ensemble]] and [[trinity_steel|Trinity Steel]]. In addition, the event includes workshops, food trucks, and student-run activity booths.
+Samba Fest was started in 2007 by Eric Galm, professor of music and ethnomusicology and co-director of the [[center_for_caribbean_studies|Center for Caribbean Studies]] at Trinity College, and funded by a Mellon Global/Urban course redevelopment grant. Galm believes the goal of and reasoning behind Samba Fest is to bring together the diverse cultural backgrounds of Hartford through music.
