Mexican Fiesta Committee of Fort Madison, Inc.

We are a 501c (3) nonprofit organization, and we were incorporated in June 1984. The corporation's purpose is to foster pride in our cultural heritage through the observance of the Mexican Fiesta in Fort Madison, Iowa, to provide scholarships for deserving individuals, and to purchase books that promote the Mexican culture for the Fort Madison Public Libraries.

The Fiesta Committee holds a regular meeting on the second Sunday of each month at 4pm. The meetings are open to the public; anyone interested in the Mexican Fiesta is welcome to attend and participate in the committee. We are a fun bunch!
