Grupo Folklórico Los Mejicas 51st Annual Spring Show: El Camino A Mi Corazón, is a beautiful display of everlasting love and the bittersweetness that comes from life. Showcasing six regions this year, the event will demonstrate the resilience and love between family through the lens of Ana, Abuela’s granddaughter, and Tia Estela, Abuela’s sister, as they reminisce and bond over Abuela Graciela’s life experiences through performances.
Everyone is encouraged to arrive early to check out the food and photo opportunities at the Placita in the outdoor lobby area of the theater. Aguas frescas and pan dulce will be available before the show and during intermission. We also encourage all guests to come in their traditional vestuario to join us in this joyous occasion.
