Las Chingonas Entertainment
Las Chingonas Entertainment was founded in 2023, shortly after the first ever Midwest Chingona Fest in October of 2022. Founded by Fabiola Lomeli and Julia Carrillo, Las Chingonas Entertainment has quickly blossomed into a full force Latina movement for those wanting to embrace their inner Chingona. While Las Chingonas was originally the foundation for Midwest Chingona Fest, we have had the honor of hosting a multitude of other events including fundraisers, Christmas Toy Distributions, Midwest Tacos and Tequila Fest, and even collaborated to present the first ever Omaha Michelada Fest in 2023.
New in 2024- we are looking to get even more involved in our community through volunteer and charity work. If you know of an organization that can use some helping hands, reach out to laschingonasent@gmail.com with more details.
LAS CHINGONAS COMMITTEE
When planning the first Chingona Fest on 2022, we quickly realized that this movement would go nowhere without the help of likeminded chingonas helping to pave the way. We put out a call for any and all women in the community that would like to be part of our history, as part of a sisterhood. Currently, Las Chingonas Committee is comprised of 17 hardworking, goal oriented latinas that volunteer their time to bring more cultural experiences to Omaha the surrounding areas.
LAS COMADRES
We've crossed paths with dozens of women that want to be involved in the Chingona Movement, but don't have the availability to be as involved as the Chingona Committee. We wanted to create a space open to any women that wanted to be involved, so we created Las Comadres. This is a networking group in which the only requirement, is to be welcoming and inclusive of all other members. This group is the first to know about upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, and exclusive invitations to events throughout the year.
New in 2024- we are arranging 2 meetups per month at local restaurants, coffee shops, and other venues for the group to socialize, learn about new events, and empower one another.
While Las Chingonas Committee is currently not taking applications, we will be in the very near future! Active participation in Las Comadres will be one of the requirements asked of members prior to being considered.
