About Adelante Familias Festival

Our first annual Adelante Familias Festival will provide a venue for Hispanic immigrants to learn, network, celebrate and be inspired. We will offer workshops, panels, exhibits, networking and other venues for Hispanic business owners, sustaining homeowners, employers, nonprofits, and other providers and vendors to reach and serve members of the Hispanic community in Northern Virginia.
Volunteers will be a crucial to a successful event. We encourage you to get involved in this fun and exciting day! All volunteers will be required to attend a 1 hour orientation that will serve as an introduction to the organization and staff as well as explain event logistics and volunteer duties. Volunteers may choose to attend an orientation on Friday, July 20th at 5:30pm at our office in Falls Church, or an orientation at the site of the Festival on Saturday morning July 21st at 9:00am. Feel free to sign up for more than one shift, if you would like!
