The Mexican Cultural Center of Northern California (MCCNC) is a nonprofit cultural arts, education, and community service organization.

Our ongoing mission has been to share and preserve our region’s unique and special Mexican heritage. Since 1992, the MCCNC has presented artistic and cultural educational programs throughout our community’s public venues, i.e. classrooms, community art galleries, civic arenas, and local auditoriums. Additionally, we support our young people by awarding annual scholarships.

Through our artistic, educational, and annual scholarship grants, we endeavor to bring the joy and inspiration of arts and culture to audiences of all ages throughout the greater Sacramento region.

We take this special opportunity to extend to you our special invitation to partner with us in these meritorious endeavors.

In the past, with the generosity of our partners, we have produced the following annual signature cultural events, as well as programs with a strong emphasis on education:

SIGNATURE EVENTS:

• The highly popular and well known Annual Gala fundraiser, featuring a complete immersion and delight of the senses, with a spectacular presentation of Mexican culture in food, music, visual surroundings and folkloric entertainment.
• The very popular Mexican visual arts and sculpture exhibitions, showcased in public places such as the CalEPA Gallery, California State Fair exhibit halls, Offices of the Mexican Consulate General, Memorial Auditorium, the Crest Theatre and the Sacramento International Airport.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS:

• Numerous annual educational, free “artist in the classroom” workshops with K-12 students on popular Mexican traditions such as “Las Posadas”, “Cinco de Mayo”, “Día de los Muertos” and the art of storytelling.
• Annual scholarships to local college bound students presented as a highlight at the Annual MCCNC Gala.

This year the Annual Gala will take place on October 5th, at the Kimpton Sawyer Hotel, in Sacramento. The theme for this year’s program is Tradition & Culture.  The program will consist of live music and dance performances inspired by the tradition and culture of Mexico. The dinner features a specially prepared “Mexican inspired” meal with a special dessert.  Our guests culminate their evening’s enjoyment by moving to Latino dance rhythms. We are excited to present this program and hope that you will continue to generously support the MCCNC by becoming a sponsor to our Annual Gala event.
