CLAC visits Mankato!
On Saturday December 8th, CLAC visited the Latino Community in Mankato.
We were privileged to attend a cultural festival in observance of the Virgen of Guadalupe During this meeting, CLAC hosted a series of small meetings with the local Latino demographic aimed at identifying challenges and recommendations for the Latino community in Mankato.

 

Native dresses, such as these, were a marked part of the celebration.

No Latino cultural day is complete without Mariachi!

The Mankato cultural festival also featured el Baile de los Viejitos (The Dance of the Old Men) a typical dance celebrating youth in old age. The dance originated in Michoacan, Mexico.
