City of Seattle - Neighborhoods Matching Funds

It has been a while since our last post, and we have very WONDERFUL news! Mariachi Seattle Azteca has been offered the City of Seattle Neigborhoods Matching Funds Grant!!!! We are very grateful to El Centro de la Raza who has sponsored for this great and wonderful project! With this money, Mariachi Seattle Azteca will be able to purchase "trajes" (or outifts) for the Mariachi, also buy a few extra trajes for new members, and to purchase a violin and a guitar for educational events for the community! In exchange, Mariachi Seattle Azteca will be putting on a few educational events for the community and also providing our services to community events free of charge. This truly is a wonderful thing for us and we wanted to share that excitement with everyone!!
