Mariachi Los Caballitos is a signature program of SAM Academy, partially funded through a Measure S/R community grant from the City of Sanger. Our ensemble performs regularly at weddings, quinceañeras, community events, festivals, and civic celebrations throughout the Central Valley.

Students develop advanced musicianship, stage presence, cultural pride, and leadership skills while preserving the rich traditions of mariachi music.

Mariachi Los Caballitos was originally launched with the support of a $10,000 Measure S grant from the City of Sanger. Since then, continued program growth has been generously supported by:

• The Wonderful Company
• The Fresno Arts Council
• National Endowment for the Arts (NEA)
