SAN DIEGO–2019 marks the Chicano Federation’s golden year, its 50th year of being an established and well-respected organization providing comprehensive, neighborhood-based services to a large and diverse population.

The Chicano Federation will commemorate this monumental milestone with a lavish gala on Saturday, May 11 at the U.S. Grant Hotel.

The celebration kicks off at 5 p.m. with an elegant twist on cocktail hour, including creative concoctions, elevated hors d’oeuvres, and live music by Los Romanticos. This bilingual and bicultural ensemble will charm the crowd with the beautiful amorous sounds of Mexico and Latin America.

Attendees are promised a memorable evening of live entertainment, photo opportunities, silent auction packages, and exquisite dining options.

The festivities galvanize with the musical talent of Manny Cepeda who will be accompanies by bustling dancers, who will bring the crowd to life with his best repertoire of Classic Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, Bachata, and Cuban Music.

Proceeds from the gala will be attributed to fostering the growth of The Chicano Federation.
