The National Museum of Mexican Art proudly presents The Selena Tribute Concert. Join us for Chicago’s biggest tribute celebrating the legendary and beloved Tex Mex queen of cumbia: Selena Quintanilla. This year marks 30 years since the world lost Selena Quintanilla, yet her voice, style, and spirit continue to inspire generations.
