SXSW AUDITORIUM SHORES STAGE CONCERTS BENEFICIARY

The Auditorium Shores Stage concerts benefit Latinas Unidas Por El Arte.

Latinas Unidas Por el Arte (LUPE Arte) is a 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization formed with two goals:

Offer an avenue for community based women artists to use their creativity in bettering their communities, and nurture these women with a space where their art preserves their cultural traditions as a foundation for explorations of our world today.

Provide the after school program NiƱos y Atre which provides quality arts education emphasizing the importance of literacy, academic achievement and critical thinking skills, without risking the loss of a cultural foundation established by the child's own expressions of their family's tradition, community's involvement, and city's outlook.
