On October 13, the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center will be showcasing “Nuestras Voces: Retelling our Stories” which sets out to take back the narrative and unveil the hidden stories of our Mexican American Leaders.
Fusing traditional Folklorico dance with contemporary themes and movement, Nuestras Voces rediscovers historical leaders in the Mexican
American community whose contributions and leadership paved the way for change.
