HWNT 10th Hasta los Muertos Bailan
Over the past 10 years, Hispanic Women’s Network of Texas Fort Worth Chapter has hosted a fundraising gala to help benefit our chapter and the Latinas in Progress development and education funds. Hasta Los Muertos Bailan is scheduled for Saturday, November 05, 2022, at Holiday Inn, 100 East Altamesa Blvd, Fort Worth, TX 76134
Our Annual iHasta Los Muertos Bailan! Gala, which translates to “Even the Dead Dance,” celebrates the Day of the Dead Mexican holiday, where deceased loved ones are remembered each year. The gala includes a cocktail social, auctions, dinner, and dancing to live music. Festive traditions such as an altar for loved ones, sugar skull face-painting, and mariachi music make it a truly unique event. Sponsors of the event play the most significant role in its success. Funds raised at this annual gala benefit HWNT Fort Worth and the Latinas in Progress (LIPFW) development and education program and scholarship fund.
