In 1993, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Roberto Sifuentes and Nola Mariano founded La Pocha Nostra in Los Angeles, California. The objective was to formally conceptualize Gómez-Peña's collaborations with other performance artists. In 1995, La Pocha’s office moved to San Francisco’s Mission District. In the late 2001, La Pocha completed the process of incorporation and became a non-profit-organization. Members include performance artists Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Violeta Luna, Michéle Ceballos, Roberto Sifuentes and over thirty associates worldwide. Projects range from performance solos to large-scale performance installations that include video, photography, audio, and cyber-art.
