You Can Send Mariachi Eterno on Tour!

Mariachi Eterno de UCSC is an inclusive and diverse student organization at UC Santa Cruz, with a mission to create a safe space to gather as students to practice mariachi music and learn about expressive Mexican culture in order to perform for both the university and the local Santa Cruz community. At Mariachi Eterno de UCSC, students are looking to grow as performers and are planning a short spring break tour throughout California to collaborate, learn from, and perform with other university mariachi ensembles. 

With a $20 donation, you can be a part of this life-changing and empowering event for these UCSC students. Any donation, large or small, will be greatly appreciated, as the funds raised will go toward transportation, housing, meals, and workshops to support this unique experience for student mariachi performers.

Success!
