The Fundación Delia Zapata is one of the little-known jewels of La Candelaria. Named in honor of
Delia Zapata Olivella |
The foundation, housed in a grand old building on the south side of Calle 10 between Carreras 2 and 3, offers dance classes and musical events.
Delia Zapata was born in 1926 in Cordoba and died exactly 14 years ago on May 24, 2001. Ironically, she was killed by a disease she contracted during a research trip in Africa.
