We invite you to mark your calendars for the 4th Annual ¡Viva Mariachi!

Date:  Saturday, April 6, 2024

Time:  two concerts (matinee & evening; times to be determined)

Location: Performing Arts Center (PAC), Bldg. 100

We will once again celebrate the rich heritage and cultural traditions of Mexico through Mariachi music and education.  

Mariachi Music - the perfect gateway to higher education

Mariachi education programs are growing nationwide as schools boost student success and increase access by adding mariachi into band and orchestra programs. 

These programs also increase cultural awareness and provide students an opportunity to experience and safeguard cultural traditions. 

¡Viva Mariachi! at Napa Valley College offers a unique opportunity for our community to learn how these programs are thriving throughout the U.S because of their effective role in student success, all while enriching the cultural vitality and musical traditions of their institutions and surrounding communities.
