Founded by the InConcerto collective in 2017, the festival is directed by Simón Gangotena and coordinated by Gabriela Piñeiros. The program brings professional classical musicians directly to everyday people, breaking down barriers to access that typically limit concert attendance to formal venues.
Wine, Music and Tradition From Mendoza to Virginia

Organizers aim to bring Bardo's experience closer to people so they understand the winery's identity.
Meanwhile, National Landing's free NaLa Noches series in Virginia will offer Latin music, beginner dance lessons, local food, and arts activities. The partnership involves the National Landing BID, Amazon, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington, bringing Hispanic heritage celebrations to the DC region throughout September.
