22ND ANNUAL SPANISH FIESTA

July 27, 2024 2:00 PM - 10:00 PM (MDT)

Description

You are invited to the 22nd annual Spanish Fiesta on July 27, 2024, sponsored by Archuleta Seniors Inc and the Spanish Fiesta Committee. This year we celebrate “La cultura cura!” a transformative health and healing philosophy that recognizes the importance of cultural values, traditions and indigenous practices on the path to healthy development, restoration, and lifelong well-being. Enjoy the 22nd Annual Spanish Fiesta in Pagosa Springs, where Spanish, Mexican, Native American and Anglo cultural traditions intertwine to create the strong heritage we have today here in Southwest Colorado. Food, music, dancing, libations, vendors, color and good company provide the ingredients of a party to delight all the senses and to make memories for a lifetime. This year is the 22nd anniversary of the Spanish Fiesta in Pagosa Springs after being dormant for some 20 years before it was revived in 2023. The Spanish Fiesta Committee of Archuleta Seniors Inc is working to make this year memorable. The headliner for the day’s activities will feature the famous New Mexican artist Darren Cordova Y Calor at the Archuleta County fair grounds in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Activities begin at 3 pm but come earlier to get your seat and enjoy authentic Hispanic cuisine of southern Colorado and northern New Mexican plus a variety of other food trucks, artisan vendors, music from Candace Vargas and Northern 505, and folklorico dance performances from local artists. We will feature scholarship recipients, the Spanish Fiesta Royalty and the Archuleta County Fair Royalty. Proceeds from this event will support older adults of Archuleta County through the services of Archuleta Seniors Inc and a BIPOC (black, indigenous, people of color) youth and elder scholarship fund. Admission is for an afternoon & evening from 2 pm to 10 pm filled with fun for all. Tickets are available online at https://givebutter.com/SpanishFiesta2024 or stop by the Pagosa Senior Center at 451 Hot Springs Blvd to purchase paper tickets.
