SUMMARY:Arte en las Calles: LaGuaGua 47 in concert
DESCRIPTION:Esperanza Arts Center\npresents \nArte en las Calles\nLaGuaGua 47 in concert \nFeaturing\nLaGuaGua47 Orquesta\nBlaze Born (AMLA Rock Band) \nHosted by Rumba 106.1’s Johanny Rodriguez \nSaturday\, July 25\, 2026\n6:00pm-9:00pm \nEsperanza Parking lot (4th & Bristol) \nFeel the rhythm\, flavor\, and joy of summer – Latino style! Join us this July for a vibrant celebration with an outdoor concert performance of La Guagua 47 featuring the LaGuagua 47 Orchestra & Singers\, Latin food\, dancing\, a local merchant fair\, balloons\, and fun for all ages. \nLa Guagua 47 is a one-of-a-kind community cultural production by Alba Martinez that tells a universal story of migration\, belonging\, and finding home in one another. Lucía is fifteen when her family loses everything and moves from the mountains of Puerto Rico to Philadelphia. She leaves behind her abuelita\, her friends\, and the only home she’s known. Feeling invisible in a new city\, she boards the 47 bus — and meets a chorus of neighbors whose stories open her world. La Guagua 47 is a bilingual Latino musical about what it takes to belong. \nPublic Transportation: Esperanza is located along SEPTA Bus Line 47.\nParking: Free parking available at 4th and Bristol \nFree and open to the public.\nRegistration encouraged but not required. \nMade possible by support from Creative PHL\, Presser Foundation\, and Philadelphia Cultural Fund. \nVIDEO PREVIEW \nLaGuaGua47
