The food, drinks, and music will be flowing all day! Karina and her Vixen Army will lead us in a free dance workout class. Our DJ will keep the party going with the hottest Latin beats and a live folk dance performance by Flor de Cafe. Jumpstart your holiday shopping with a craft market featuring Salvadoran artisanal goods. 

We have teamed up with 4 local chefs to put their unique spins on traditional pupusas and we will be serving them at the restaurant during pupusa week, and on Pupusa Day. A portion of the sales from those pupusas will be donated to Hope Center for Wellness.
