The Santa Rosa Junior College’s Latinx Faculty and Staff Association (LFSA) organized La Carpa, a talent show. To honor and celebrate talent, heritage and culture students, faculty and community members showcased their diverse talents on Nov. 22 at Burbank Auditorium. Talents ranged from singing and folkloric dancing to an energetic jump rope performance.
