reflections:reflexiones

The Decatur Arts Alliance presents the 4th annual Placita Latina exhibition. This juried exhibition aims to celebrate and showcase the rich and diverse heritage of Latinx and Hispanic culture. This year’s theme, “reflections:reflexiones”, invites artists to submit works that explore, reflect, and honor their experience of cultural legacy in 2024.  Join us in celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with a street market closing reception, filled with traditional food, lively music, and local artists.

 

About Placita Latina

Hispanic Heritage Month, Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, celebrates the history, culture, and contributions of Hispanic-Americans, who hail from the 30+ countries and territories that make up Latin America. Communities all over the US mark the achievements of Hispanic and Latino Americans with festivals and educational activities.

 

In 2021, a group of local Hispanic/Latinx residents/professionals/friends came together to propose a colorful, cultural, and historical series to be held throughout this special month.

 

The result is Placita Latina, a fun-filled, festive schedule of “mini-events” that highlight Hispanic/Latinx performance, food, and culture that all take place in Decatur, GA.
