La Peña del SurCo is a new cultural initiative led by ethnomusicologist and arts and health researcher Dr. Jennie Gubner and her Argentine/Chilean folk music trio El SurCo. This month also features the group Tradiciones. Tradiciones was founded in 2009 in Tucson with the purpose of sharing Peruvian and Latin American music in Arizona and beyond.

Gubner’s current research interests involve leveraging intercultural participatory music practices to foster and strengthen age-friendly and intergenerational healthy communities. La Peña del SurCo seeks to celebrate folk music traditions from Argentina, Chile and across Latin America while building community through intimate, acoustic, and participatory musical practices.

In addition to our regularly provided refreshments, we are thrilled to announce that this month Che Cafe Empanadas Argentinas will be selling empanadas at the Peña! Please invite a friend or neighbor! This event is free and open to everyone.
