English In Action Fiesta de Tamales

In a valley filled with hundreds of nonprofits and high-priced ticket galas, English in Action’s annual fundraiser puts the people it serves in the spotlight. An army of volunteers and grassroots activism makes the fundraiser a true community event. It not only helps raise a significant amount of money to fund the organization, but the actual event meets English In Action’s mission by bringing diverse communities together.

The Fiesta includes a performance by Aspen Santa Fe Ballet’s Folklórico dancers, a tamale contest, piñatas, dancing, a prize drawing and more than 1,200 homemade tamales and pupusas to energize attendees.
