About Us
About Us
SI CABE was started as a labor of love by two mothers in 2010 who saw a need for authentic bilingual cultural experiences in the Southern Illinois area. From inception our organization has worked to build the capacity of bilingual artists, activists, educators and community members, by offering authentic cultural experiences in a range of art forms.
