Cuatro Festival
in San Francisco
Report by Don Jibaro Barbanegra
The Puerto Rican Community in the Bay area appears to have nailed down the mysteriously basic, and yet intrinsically difficult principle of how to keep Boricuas working together. They have a festival... a cuatro Festival, that is.

The "Club Puertorriqueño de San Francisco" has successfully established the tradition to be followed for years to come.These Puerto Ricans have established the quintessential Puerto Rican tradition in the Bay Area... honor to Puerto Rico's National Musical Instrument... the Cuatro. Dig the highlights...!!!
