The city of Orlando is now celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with a month-long art exhibition and upcoming community celebration.
In keeping with this year’s national theme, “Collective Heritage: Honoring the Past, Inspiring the Future,” Orlando’s Hispanic Heritage Month Art Exhibition will display pieces from 32 local visual artists.
The exhibit kicks off with an opening reception (which is currently sold out) and ribbon-cutting ceremony at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 17, at the Terrace Gallery in City Hall.
The month of recognition continues as Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and City Commissioner Tony Ortiz host a community celebration on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at the Dr. Phillips Center from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Community members are invited to enjoy traditional Hispanic dishes, Latin music and folk-dance performances.
