UPCOMING LATINO/A ROUNDTABLE EVENTS
Latino/a Roundtable is partnering with the dA Center for the Arts during the Aztlan 2015 Mujeres de Aztlan/Desde el Corazon de la Mujer. We encourage our members, family and friends to join us for these events. Each event is special in that it allows us to celebrate our culture, honor our history/traditions, showcase local talent and appreciate our leaders. The Latino/a Roundtable believe in the power of art and art as a vehicle to further the work on education, justice and activism. Feel free to contact Melissa Ayala at melissaayalalrt@gmail.com or Amy Tam at helloimamy@hotmail.com with any questions around these events. All events will be held at:
