Florida State University's Latinx Cultural Celebration will be held next week in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.
The Latinx Cultural Celebration is designed to pay tribute to the generations of Latinx Americans who have positively affected our historical, political, economic, and/or social context in the United States. The goal of the cultural celebration is to bring the university and Tallahassee communities together to enhance our cultural awareness, increase our knowledge of significant contributions, and share untold stories of the Latinx community. The celebration takes place annually during Hispanic Heritage Month.
During the celebration, participants are introduced to Latinx culture, music, and traditions. The 2020 Latinx Cultural Celebration will be held virtually on Sept. 28 as a watch party-style event for the premiere of the socially distanced celebration.
