We are a very pleased to announce a few details about our next event fundraiser, The Art of Giving at the On Broadway Nightclub in downtown San Diego, CA.
Entertainment
We booked the band we wanted and they are awesome! Orquesta Tabaco Y Ron’s is a 12 piece “Big-Band” orchestra, composed of musicians from all over Latin America including Puerto Rico, Cuba, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Peru, Colombia and Mexico.
OTR’s high-energy, hard-edged brand of salsa music has appealed to devoted salsa dancers and Latin music DJ’s worldwide. OTR’s contagious rhythms produce an energy that revives the almost extinct salsa sound of generations past.

Ethan Margolis - Born in Santa Cruz, CA, Ethan Margolis was born into a family of musicians. Since his arrival in Sevilla in the year 2000, Margolis has made a name for himself in the intimate world of legendary Gypsy singers and dancers. In 2006, Margolis created Arte y Pureza Flamenco Co. and has directed, produced and played in two sold-out national tours. Deemed “a triumph” by The New York Times, Arte y Pureza is dedicated to the preservation of pure flamenco from the streets and homes of Andalucía. In 2007 Ethan produced and played guitar on legendary singer Miguel Funi’s CD “Aires Gitanos.” He has performed with such greats as Curro Fernández, Manuel de Paula, El Lebrijano, Miguel Funi, Concha Vargas and Inés Bacán.
