MIS NEIGHBORS

The Mariachi Plaza was decorated with mariachis in their charro suits at the Santa Cecilia Festival on Tuesday. But Carla Cisneros stood out on stage, not only because of her young age, 14, but because she was the only female in her mariachi group. I caught her right after she performed- still nervously laughing. It’s nice to see young women thrive in the male-dominated world of mariachis.
