Product Description

The Portuguese in California are a thriving community with a compelling story that is an integral part of the history of this state. Attracted by the Gold Rush, the Portuguese (mainly from the Azores Islands) found their passage to California as crewmembers aboard American whaling ships and began arriving in the mid-1800s. They brought with them not only their traditions, but also an intense desire to succeed in this land of opportunity. The Feasts of the Holy Spirit, embody the memories of the past and showcase the integration of Portuguese into California culture.
