Description
Quinceañera ( keen-say-ah-NYAIR-ah )-Is to be properly pronounced. Is a coming of age celebration. Where “girls become ladies.” Where, traditionally, young females are ready for marriage, and motherhood. Where elaborate is a minimal term in describing the atmosphere. It is a melting pot of “Latino” culture, and can be traced to Aztec ritual. It was once only for the wealthy, the privileged, but times have changed. Traditions have changed. The Quinceanera has changed.
La Chicana Collective has the honor of inviting you and your distinguished family to our Debut.
Works by:

We would like to acknowledge all the strong women (especially in our community) that were before us, that inspire us now, and that will continue the tradition of Chicanisma.
