MESA, AZ — Celebrate mom with music as the East Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce hosts 'Amor Eterno' a mariachi concert!
“It is it's a beautiful event. I'm so excited. I mean, this is […] one of my favorite events that the Chamber puts on during Mother's Day and we do that because we want to bring a little bit more of our culture to our community,” said Frankie Jo Rios, President & CEO of the East Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. “I think it's just a great time to uplift our Hispanic culture and [foster] community engagement you know, with just a beautiful music that I'm sure [that for] many of us it's like generational; we've heard this from the time we were little kids, our parents and I think it brings back wonderful memories- at least it does for me.”
Two mariachi bands will be taking the stage at the Mesa Arts Center.
“First mariachi group is Mariachi Pueblo Viejo, our other group is Mariachi Rubor and they are an all women group,” said Rios.
Ballet Folklorico Esperanza will be performing at the concert and Emilio Roman is the special guest for the concert.
