La Gritería Kit

La Gritería is a Nicaraguan tradition that celebrates the Virgin of Conception. In Miami, communities arrange booths with shrines in which crowds will come to sing to the Virgin. This kit is meant to equip those unfamiliar with this Nicaraguan celebration with some basic tools to join in on the celebration, such as a prayer/song book, votive candles, a rosary, matracas, and a bag for collecting goodies from La Griteria.
