For the past two years, San Diego has celebrated International Women’s Day with a night that has surpassed all expectations. This year, will be no exception. COMRADES y COMADRES: A Celebration of La Mujer, Casa Familiar’s 3nd Annual Dia de la Mujer Celebration promises to be a celebration of epic womanly proportions. Only in it’s second year, last year’s Dia de la Mujer gathered a crowd of over 500 and included over 30 female artists, an amazing literary presentation by the women of the RedCalacarts Collective and a music lineup that was nothing short of explosive.
