Enjoy an afternoon of the Valley's most talented youth performers at the 13th Annual El Puente Festival, a free event presented by Cultural Coalition at Tempe Center for the Arts (TCA) on Saturday, April 5th from 11am-3pm. Known for its signature community parade across the bridge, or "el puente" in Spanish, this festival brings together artists of all ages to highlight the importance of connecting traditional arts and culture practices from one generation to the next. High school mariachi music, elementary school ballet folklórico dances, storytellings, and free arts activities are just a few of the things attendees will enjoy during this event.

The festival will have a variety of educational and arts activities for youth of all ages, including free books, hands-on crafts, and activities that get excited feet moving to the beat of the live music. Cultural Coalition will activate multiple areas of TCA including theater stages for professional performances, lobby areas for art activities, and outdoor areas for food trucks and more!

Having volunteers at this event is key to making it a success! Review the available volunteer opportunities and sign up for a slot!
