National Hispanic Heritage Month

It's National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15): a month dedicated to the generations of people of Hispanic descent and their positive impact on the nation and society through advocacy work, culture, art, popular and traditional foods, and so much more.

As we recognize the cultural impact of Hispanic heritage, Around the Pearl wanted to use our platform to celebrate those within our local communities because representation matters on all scales. Thank you to Blackfish Gallery and Gallery 114, who contributed the work of these amazing artists who beautifully represent this vibrant celebration.
