¡Mayo Florido ha llegado!
Come join Los Pleneros de la 21 as we celebrate a very special 40th Anniversary of Las Fiestas de Cruz, a beloved 200+ year old Puerto Rican tradition that captures the strength of family heritage and community through song, spirit and chanted rosaries.

This year, in recognition to elders and vanguards of the Fiesta de Cruz traditions, we invite you to join us at 5PM with frituras and light refreshments at Villa Santurce Community Garden (111th st & Park Avenue) as we honor the late Olga Costoso. A devoted steward of the Fiesta de Cruz, Olga created a sacred space in El Barrio for community, bomberes and pleneres. At 6:30pm, and following a welcoming and altar recognition at the garden, a procession will depart Villa Santurce towards The People’s Church. All are welcomed to join and ensure the sounds of plena echo through El Barrio and to kick off Las Fiestas de Cruz.
