Join us as we prepare to represent Puerto Rico at Navy Pier’s annual International Carnival. This year we enlisted the help of Noel Rosado (Viento de Agua, La Máquina Insular, Roberto Roena y su Apollo Sound) to take our plena to the next level. Joining Rosado we have Los Pleneros de Don Segundo “agrandado” with a heavy horn section. We will have food while supplies last, BYOB policy y mucha plena!

The Aquí, Somos fundraiser at the Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center (May 10th, 2025) promises to be an unforgettable celebration of Afro-Caribbean culture, headlined by the internationally acclaimed plena group, Los Pleneros de la Cresta. Recently featured in Bad Bunny's chart-topping album "Debí Tirar Más Fotos," this marks their first visit to the U.S. after achieving significant global recognition with three of Spotify's 50 most-streamed songs of 2025. Attendees will immerse themselves in vibrant music, lively dance, and delicious Latin cuisine, making this not just an event, but a cultural experience that supports our artistic programs.
