Tucson was proudly represented at the 2025 National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellowships Awards Ceremony at The Library of Congress last night, September 17.

Gertie Lopez, of Gertie and the TO Boys, performed a tribute about the San Xavier Mission in honor of Carmen Baron, a 2025 NEA Heritage Fellow.

A master folk costume maker, dancer, and tradition bearer, Carmen has spent decades preserving the artistry of Mexican folklórico and passing it on to future generations. Her recognition is a tribute not only to her incredible talent but to the vibrant cultural heritage of Tucson itself.
