β About The San Mateo County Fair
The award-winning San Mateo County Fair is the Peninsulaβs premier community event for family fun and entertainment. The San Mateo County Fair strives to provide a diverse experience through education, inspiration, and entertainment. The annual Fair represents a celebration of our communityβs talent, interests, innovations, and rich agricultural and artistic heritage.
β About The Event
Farmworkers across the world have been working hard to keep our communities fed and our food system alive during these unpredictable times. The San Mateo Event & Fair is committed to supporting the health and rights of farmworkers and laborers and honoring Cesar Chavezβs legacy, that is why, in conjunction with the Cesar Chavez Foundation,Β we will be hosting a special event dedicated to our local farmworker heroes during the Dia de la Feria.
On June 11th, we will be showing the documentary “A Song For Cesar.” The film tells a previously untold story about the musicians and artists β including Joan Baez, Maya Angelou, and Carlos Santana, among others β who dedicated their time, creativity, and even reputations to peacefully advance Cesar Chavezβs movement to gain equality and justice for Americaβs suffering farmworkers.
