A quinceañera is a rite-of-passage ushering a girl's transition into womanhood, emphasizing the importance of family and community. We invite guests of all ages and cultures to join in this vibrant immersive experience featuring music, dance, food, and art inspired by Latin American rituals, mythology and magic!

Creative Team: Tanya Orellana (Scenic Design), Mextly Couzin (Lighting Design) and Scarlet Moreno (Costume Design)
