In the February newsletter, we're celebrating both Black History Month and our upcoming Mariachi Festival. Let's delve into what these entail:

Black History Month

Black History Month has a rich origin story, originating from a weeklong celebration started nearly a century ago. It was initiated by historian Carter G. Woodson, who sought to promote the scientific study of black life and history. The celebration expanded from a week to a month, providing an opportunity to understand Black histories comprehensively, highlighting achievements beyond stories of racism and slavery. This month, let's commemorate the legacy of African American individuals and their contributions to history and culture.

Mariachi Festival

Our Mariachi Festival promises to be a vibrant celebration of music and culture. The newsletter features insights from teachers teaching the genre, offering a glimpse into the educational aspects of Mariachi. Additionally, historical background on Mariachi will be explored, enriching our understanding of this beloved musical tradition. Whether you're a student, educator, or enthusiast, don't miss out on this exciting festival! Get your tickets following the link in the newsletter
