HERITAGE
New York City’s Latin culture draws from an extraordinary web of heritage lines — the Indigenous peoples of the Americas, the European colonizers who reshaped the hemisphere, the African nations whose descendants forged new traditions, and the Asian communities who arrived through indentured servitude and later migration. More recent arrivals, from Lebanese to Japanese communities, have woven themselves permanently into Latin identity across generations. Explore events, artists, and cultural traditions organized by heritage, spanning the full breadth of the communities that make up NYC’s Latin world.
