The rich cultural life of Princeton’s Latino community is celebrated with an afternoon of music, dance, food and crafts on both Hinds Plaza and Palmer Square. Part of Hispanic Heritage Month.

The community is invited to experience the richness and diversity of Latin American culture through its music, local artists and artisans, traditional food, and arts and crafts activities including a piñata!

Hinds Plaza will be transformed into a traditional marketplace with a variety of artisans and vendors displaying their wares. A DJ will provide a soundtrack highlighting the music of Latin America and pop up performances by musicians and dancers will occur throughout the afternoon.

Palmer Square will host music and dance performances on their stage all afternoon and local non-profits will provide activities and crafts for kids. Confirmed performers include Mariachi Los Tigres de Princeton, Alborada Dance Company, Sonqo, and Princeton Capoeira.

This event is co-sponsored by Mi Pueblo Lindo, Princeton Public Library, McCarter Theatre Center, Lewis Center for the Arts, Princeton Latin American Student Association, Princeton University Art Museum, Princeton University Department of Spanish and Portuguese, and Princeton University Program in Latin American Studies.
