Event Details
The 3rd Annual “Frida Fest,” produced by the Norma Group and hosted by EpicCentral in Grand Prairie, Texas, is a FREE three-day event whose mission is to not only celebrate the accomplishments of this renowned and globally recognized artist, commonly known simply as “Frida” (Frida Kahlo/1907-1954) but also to highlight the internal “Frida” in all of us, showcasing the internal leadership, strength, courage, and sense of community spirit that shine bright in all our proud Latinas.
The FREE three-day event will highlight Latinas from across Texas: artists, elected officials, DJs, musicians, and a full market featuring the finest arts and crafts dedicated to our beloved Frida.
In addition, a “Best Frida” contest will be held on Saturday, May 9, from 8pm to 10pm, with a cash prize of $1,954 (the year of death) for the 1st-place winner, as there can be only ONE Frida! Community leaders will select the finalist, and the winner will be determined by audience participation.
The Full Festival and Market will take place on Sunday, Mother’s Day, May 10, from 12:00pm to 6:00pm It will host the best Mexican street concessions from throughout the State of Texas and include a VIP lounge with a full bar menu to truly capture the Frida spirit, all within the heart of Grand Prairie, Texas.
