Concierto de Reyes para Niños
The most exciting and philanthropic Latino musical in San Francisco history, the Coro Hispano de San Francisco returns to celebrate its traditional presentation for Kings Day.
An event full of joy is free for the whole family. It is presented by the Mission Culutral Center for Latino Arts.
The Coro was founded in 1975 to celebrate the bicentenary of Mission San Francisco, while Coro’s first members were largely from the City’s Mission District, 92 percent Spanish-speaking, and more than half without prior music-making experience. Educational outreach to the community has always been an integral part of Coro’s mission.
The event will take place on Jan. 3, 2010, from 1 – 2:30 p.m., in the Gallery room of the Center, at 2868 Misison Street, San Francisco. For more info please call 415-821-1155, or visit: www.missionculturalcenter.org.
