El Puente Fest is going virtual!
Cultural Coalition Inc invites all to join us virtually at this year’s El Puente Fest. El Puente Fest (the Bridge Festival) is a unique cultural experience featuring music and dance performances from around the world. In order to practice safe social distancing during this time of quarantine, this year’s festival will be held entirely online.
The Spanish word ‘Puente’ means ‘Bridge’. In every language the word ‘Bridge’ conjures up universal metaphors of transformation, enlightenment, freedom and even our passing into the afterlife. This year technology will be the virtual bridge that leads us all to this online celebration of diversity and unity. Everyone is welcomed to participate!
Join us as we provide free online entertainment and cultural enrichment. Sunday the 26th, we will stream performances by:
Mariachi Rubor (pictured above)
