The Eurasians with their fusion of Western and Asian parentage, have a unique and versatile heritage of performing arts which embody their outward-looking perspective.   In 1991 the Eurasian Association organized its first Heritage Day and a dance group was formed. This dance troupe with a change in members has since been promoting the Eurasian heritage through folk dances and sketches of the Eurasian way of life at both public and private functions.   The Eurasian folk dances in Singapore, predominately Portuguese in their dance steps, music and costumes were influenced by Portuguese folk dances.   In 1997 at the invitation of the Macau Government our dancers were given a three day dance workshop in Macau. At the end of this workshop our Association was presented with 30 sets of ladies and 15 sets of men's costumes. These are original costumes and come from the province of Minho in Portugal. A few members from the dance troupe paid a visit to Portugal in September 2001. To meet with the Portuguese dance members for exchange of ideas.   The dance troupe has represented the Eurasian Community in several National Day Parades.
