La Peña del SurCo, inspired by peñas in Argentina and Chile, celebrates folk and popular music traditions from across Latin America while promoting intergenerational forms of cultural belonging and wellbeing in Tucson, Arizona through intimate, acoustic, and participatory performance practices.
La Peña has a NEW LOCATION!: The Little Theater at Project MORE High School (440 S Park Ave, Tucson, AZ 85719).
La Peña del SurCo is an applied ethnomusicology project led by PhD ethnomusicologist and intercultural arts and health scholar Dr. Jennie Gubner and her Argentine/Chilean folk music group El SurCo (Maxi Larrea, Andrés Pantoja & Diana Peralta). Gubner’s research explores how Latin American models of cultural organizing and participatory music making can be leveraged to promote forms of intergenerational wellbeing and diasporic belonging.
