The 2015 World Wide Comadrazo℠ celebrates “El Quince” our 15th Anniversary Celebration–Exposition & Gala. The event is being held on April 25th in Austin, Texas. Please join us for great opportunities for personal and professional development. This experience is modeled after the 2005, 2007, 2011 and 2013 WorldWide Comadrazos℠ held in Austin and the 2008 Regional Comadrazo℠ held in California. Check out our Flickr albums to the right for memories of our past WorldWide Comadrazos℠.
Why you should plan to attend the WorldWide Comadrazo℠
Unique Experiences
If you have been to a Comadrazo℠ in your city network, you are aware that these are unique learning experiences—a chance to get to know each other, learn what we do in our every day lives, and an opportunity to build on our Count on Me culture—all in a uniquely Latina way.
As many of you have said, it’s a chance to be with other Latinas and not have to explain yourself. Being together “fills your soul”.
Extend your cariño and Latinidad
The Comadrazo℠ is not a meeting and the event on April 25th is not a conference but a learning opportunity where you must extend your cariño and Latinidad to all our Comadres. You will meet new amigas who will become your Comadres!
Learn about your Comadres’ businesses and talents
The Expo, a large exhibit area, will provide you opportunities to learn about the businesses and talents of Comadres from around the country, even the world! You also will meet sponsors and supporters.
Interact with Comadres in semi-structured ways
We will create activities that will allow you to meet Comadres in semi-structured ways, from early in the morning until you drop in bed at night! We will have personal introductions in the platicas a la carrera, culturally-themed topical roundtables and experiential group-building, talent show, fashion show, exercises, and much, much more.
