Today
National Hispanic Heritage Month What: Hispanic Heritage Month is an annual celebration of the diverse cultures and contributions of both Latin/Hispanic communities in the US and beyond! When: Beginning in 1968, it was observed as Hispanic Heritage Week and in 1988 it was extended to a month (from Sep 15- Oct 15). Since then, it has been celebrated through community gatherings, conferences art shows, festivals, and more! Why: September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of the independence of Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Additionally, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September 18.
