Experience the culinary, and folkloric musical and artistic traditions of Latin American in a celebration of faith, tradition and culture in honor of Our Virgin of Guadalupe on Dec. 13th, 2015.

Join us for one of Latin America’s biggest, oldest celebrations; a celebration of faith, tradition, and culture in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  Latin Americans host celebrations during the early days of December to honor the apparition of the Virgin Mary to Juan Diego, known as the Guadalupe event.
