Welcome to The Hispanic Heritage Month
We are proud of our Hispanic Heritage and happy to celebrate this month with you. Today we launch this 5-week series with the best of our music, food literature, and much more.
In a predominately male industry, this all-female Mariachi has indeed created their unique mark in the mariachi world. Las Alteñas will change what you think of mariachi music. They’re young, they’re driven, and with them, every night is lady’s night.

Rethinking the History of Maize – Maíz, regalo de los dioses
Cultivado por más de 9000 años el maíz ha evolucionado su sabor y textura, siendo usado en muchas partes de América. Para la época de la colonización, el maíz era la base de la alimentación que más tarde fue adoptada por el resto del mundo y ahora hace parte de la dieta universal. ¡Un regalo desde las Américas para el mundo! Aquí cubriremos su historia, impacto e interpretación durante todos estos años.
Domesticated by early farmers around 9000 years ago, it has evolved into tasty, tender corn that was carried on to other parts of the Americas. By the time of the European colonization, corn was a major food source through many parts of the region and it was then adopted by the world as part of a universal diet. A gift from the Americas to the world, we will cover the history, the impact, and the many ways this plant has made its way along the centuries. Evento presentado por AARP HoustonEvento en español. -

Hello, my name is Ruben Castillo and I am the Director of EEO and Employee Relations at METRO here in Houston. In my roll, I oversee the Diversity and Inclusion program. I was introduced to your organization by my wife who shared the link to the events you have planned for Hispanic Heritage Month. I would like to incorporate some of your upcoming webinars into our program but I am curious on whether the webinars will be be in English and Spanish or Spanish only? I’d like to ensure that our workforce would be able to attend and understand the content if they are English speakers only.
Thank you in advance.
Hi Ruben! We are so happy to be part of your celebration.
We have in English and in Spanish Webinars and we are working for including bilingual contents. The only one that will be 100% English is the Literary Encounters on Oct 13th.
Thank you for your support and we will be happy to work with you in the future to support your program.
