Boyle Heights Beat Quinceañera

For 15 years, has been a trusted voice in our community — a nonprofit news organization serving Boyle Heights and the Eastside. We provide “noticias por y para la comunidad” or “news by and for the community.”

The Beat offers a unique brand of journalism rooted in community engagement, providing information and resources that meet the needs of local residents. Over the years, we’ve grown from a high school journalism program, training the next generation of journalists, into a community newsroom, serving as a trusted source of local news and information.

Now, we’ve reached a pivotal milestone in our journey: our Quinceañera.

Like a traditional quinceañera, this celebration is a coming of age, a moment to reflect on how far we’ve come and to embrace what lies ahead. This evening is both a heartfelt love letter to Boyle Heights and the Eastside as well as a bold announcement of our next chapter! 🧡

This special night will feature:

✨Live music, delicious food & drinks, dancing, and community

✨Youth reporters engaging with guests throughout the night

✨Silent auction/ gallery walk, photo booth, and other activations

At its core, this quinceañera is about celebrating our past, present, and future. It's a celebration with and for our community. Together, we’ll honor our shared history and spark momentum for the future of local journalism.

Come celebrate with us! 🎊 Mark your calendars, invite your friends, and join us for a night to remember!

Tickets are available on a sliding scale. You can choose the option that feels right: from $15 in honor of our quinceañera, up to $115 for those able to give more. All tickets are general admission.
