As founder of Más Productions, she continues to create spaces where artists, musicians, and community come together — uniting food, music, and performance into unforgettable cultural experiences.
COMMUNITY
Carmela states, "As a performing artist, I have followed the path of many artists before me who have used performance platforms not only to entertain, but as platforms of communication. Therefore, I lend my talents to various community outreach projects such as arts and culture, education, health, civics, social justice, special needs and more. If I can open doors of communication through music performance or production, then I have used my talents well. "
